70
- larger node at bottom of Atrium
- takes 100 m/sec for impulse to pass through AV node and enter the AV bundle
- only electrical connection between atria and ventricles is the AV bundle (bundle of his)
- AV bundle impulse travels through interventricular septum to bottom of ventricles, where they stimuate Purkinje fibers, which relays impulse to throughout both ventricles
AV node
71
Bundle of His
AV bundle
72
faster the then normal heart beat
tachycardia
73
slower then normal heart beat
bradycardia
74
Conducting System
1. SA node is activated
2. Stimuli spreads from SA across both atria and reaches the AV node
3. Stimuli is delayed, then both atria contract
4. Stimuli travels along interventricular septum within AV bundle, will branch to become the Purkinje fiber
5. Purkinje fibers distribute stimuli to the myocardium, causing ventricles to contract
75
These cells receive the stimuli; resting potential is about -90 mV for the ventricular cardiac cells, and about -80 mV for the atrial cardiac cells; skeletal muscle is around -85 mV. Ventricular cardiac cells reach threshold of -75 mV
Contractile cell
76
the channels open and Na+ ions enter; threshold is -75 mV
Rapid depolarization
77
when transmembrane potential reaches 30 m, Na channels close and transmembrane potential becomes a little bit more negative as Na is pumped out ; but when Ca+2 channels open and Ca+2 enters the cell and binds to troponin same as skeletal muscle; potential remains at 0
The Plateau
78
slow Ca+2 channels close and slow K+ channels open so K+ rushes out to reduce positive charge in cell.
Repolarization
79
the time when a cell will not respond to a second stimuli, last 200 msec
Absolute refractory period
80

83
the period between start of one heartbeat and the beginning of another heartbeat, is divided into 2 phases
