Backup pacemaker potential in the
AV node & bundle of His (if the SA node is damaged etc) But! They are slower AV node = ___ minute (vs 100 for SA) Bundle of his = ___ per minute |
50
30 |
|
Issues w/ backup pacemaker -
|
1st problem - lose parasympathetic
control - only have sympathetic 2nd with bundle of his as the ap You lose atrial contraction ability Which lowers stroke volume |
|
Mitral =
|
think mighty!, left strong side of the heart, the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle
|
|
Whats happening ionically-
|
Sodium will enter the muscle cell and depolarize it
Sodium channels are very quick Do not want to sustain a contraction! (bad lose blood flow) 3rd ion - voltage gated calcium channels Allows calcium to enter the cell - down its concentration gradient This prolongs the depolarization event - This extends the refractory period, which means I cannot! Have another action potential stimulating before a certain amount of time Potassium channels are opening slowly, potassium will exit or leave the cell slowly and this will repolarize the cell back down to resting and will not get the sustained contraction as before |

QRS complex/wave - spike
|
Ventricular depolarization
Trigger ventricular contraction |
|
T wave -
|
ventricular repolarization
|
|
atrial repolarization -
|
is being hidden/masked under the QRS
|
|
P wave -
|
depolarization of the muscle cells in the atria
Atria depolarization - assume this leads to atrial contraction |
|
QRS wave will signal/trigger -
|
contraction (left ventricle)
