A

Allow ions to pass freely from cell to cell, directly transmitting the depolarizing current across the entire heart

Q

Functional Syncutium

A

Cardiac fibers are electrically coupled by the gap junctions, the entire myocardium behaves as a single coordinated unit

Q

Angina and myocardial infraction

A

-due to myocardial ischemia
-Chest Pain
-

17
Q

Myocardial ischemia results of

A

atherosclerosis

18
Q

Pain associated in anginal

A
1- Exertion
2- Emotion
3- eating
4- cold
short lived and relieved by NTG (Nitroglycerine)
19
Q

Myocardial Infraction pain

A
  • occurs spontaneously
  • more long-lasting
  • not relieved by NTG (nitroglycerine)
20
Q

Angina characteristics

A

1- no cell death to myocardium

due to resupply of blood

21
Q

Myocardial Infraction characteristic

A

1- Cell death

2- my result in death if enough cells die.

22
Q

Prefered markers for detecting myocardoial cell injury

A

Cardia Troponin I (cTnI) or T (cTnT)

  • both rise 2-6 hours after injury
  • both peak in 12-24 hours
  • cTnl can stay elevated for 5-8 days
  • cTnT for 5-14 days
