CV 3 Myocytes And EP Flashcards
What is pattern of depolarization in heart
SA to AV through atria
To bundle of his
To right and left bundle
To purkinje
All different areas of cardiac depolarization what
Look more or less alike
P
Q
R
T
Atrial depolarization
Depolarization down branch bundles of septum
Ventricular depolarization
Ventricular repolarization
Way ventricle depolarizes
Way septum depolarizes
Apex to base
Base to apex
Ventricle phases 4 0 1 2 3 4
4- resting membrane potential, recovery
0- quick upstroke, na in rapidly
2- calcium in during plateau
3- k flows out, repolarization
What happens to potassium gate when cell depolarizes
Closes. Open at rest. Not leak channels
K channels open when what
Myocyte repolarizes
Not leak channel
SA node action potential sequence
4 Na leaks in
0 Slowly depolarizes in phase 0 (funny current)
Upstroke is influx of calcium once over threshold f
3 K out
Speed of signal going through av node to bundles and why
Sloe because fibrous tissue separates atria from ventricles
How sa node and ventriclular action potential charts differ
In SA node no 1 and 2, no plateau, just depolarization and repolarization
What happens at -60 mv in sa node
Na in faster than k leaving
What happens in funny current
Na in slowly depolarizing cell
How funny channels are opened
When voltage drops below threshold
How all other channels than funny are opened
Voltage above threshold
How to change heart rate through funny current
More funny current, depolarize quicker, steeper curve
Slow l type and transitory calcium channels result in what
Calcium channel open, comes in cell, depolarization rapid but not as fast as sodium
What forms a dyad
Sarcoplasmic reticulum and t tubule
What holds myocytes together
Macula adherens
Funny current only works where
SA node
Which channel responsible for phase 0
Which responsible for calcium moving in
Fast sodium channel
Slow L type calcium channel
