depolarization - correct answer ✔- inside of cell becomes positive,
| | | | | | | | |



outside negative
| | |




- contraction
|




- na+ channel opens
| | | |




- ELECTRICAL
|




repolarization - correct answer ✔movement of cells = inside is
| | | | | | | | |



negative again
| | |




- na+ channels close, k+ channels open
| | | | | | |




- MECHANICAL
|




p wave | |




qrs wave |




t wave - correct answer ✔- (p) atrial depolarization
| | | | | | | | |




- (qrs) ventricular depolarization
| | | |




- (t) ventricular repolarization
| | |




refractory period - correct answer ✔per of time where cardiac cells
| | | | | | | | | |



cannot respond to stimulus
| | | |

,absolute refractory period - correct answer ✔beginning of qrs to peak
| | | | | | | | | |



of t wave
| | |




relative refractory (vulnerable per of repolarization) - correct answer
| | | | | | | |



✔- cardiac cells have repolarized enough to respond to strong
| | | | | | | | | |



stimulus
| |




- during this per a strong stimulus may overtake the pacemaker of the
| | | | | | | | | | | |



heart
| |




- ex. PVC during vulnerable period may turn into vtach or torsades
| | | | | | | | | | | |




- prolonged QT interval inc possibility
| | | | |




causes of prolonged qt intervals - correct answer ✔haldol,
| | | | | | | |



bradycardia, hypokalemia
| |




automaticity - correct answer ✔ability of pacemaker cells to initiate
| | | | | | | | |



electrical impulse
| |




excitability - correct answer ✔ability of muscle cells to respond to
| | | | | | | | | |



outside stimulus
| |




conductivity - correct answer ✔ability to recieve electrical stimulus
| | | | | | | |



and conduct impulse to adjacent cells
| | | | | |

, contraction - correct answer ✔cardiac cells shorten = muscular
| | | | | | | |



contraction in response to electrical stimulus
| | | | | |




sa node - correct answer ✔- primary pacemaker of heart
| | | | | | | | | |




- 60-90 bpm
| |




av node - correct answer ✔delay = atrial contraction + ventricular
| | | | | | | | | |



filling
| |




- 40-60 bpm
| |




bundle of his - correct answer ✔ability to self initiate electrical activity
| | | | | | | | | | |

|



- 40-60 bpm
| |




purkinje fibers - correct answer ✔network of fibers that carry
| | | | | | | | |



electrical impulse to ventricular muscle cells
| | | | | | |




- 20-40 bpm
| |




NSR |




Brady |




Tachy
SVT |




Junctional |
