2. CARDIAC AND RENAL: Electrical conduction system heart Flashcards
depolarization= ________. this leads to ________
positive ions come in; contraction (systole)
repolarization leads to _____________
diastole

k
the cells that have fastest independent heart rate
sino atrial node cells
the cells that depolarize first
sino atrial node cells
Step 1:
sino atrial node depolarizes
Step after sino atrial depolarization.What does this cause? What step # is this?
atrial depolarization; contraction; this is step 2
Step after atrial depolarization. What happens?
Atrial ventricular node receives signal; it “holds” the signal for 100 milliseconds, then sends signal down atrialventricular bundle
What happens after the signa is sent by the AV node?
it spreads up thru Purkinje fibers causing ventricular depolarization, which leads to contraction
