If the SA node of the heart isn't functioning properly, then this might lead to abnormal rhythms and irregular heartbeat. It is then that you might need a pacemaker. Sometimes the SA node is not able ...
A first-degree AV node block occurs when conduction through the AV node is slowed, thus delaying the time it takes for the action potential to travel from the SA node, through the AV node, and to the ...
The sinoatrial (SA) node is the natural pacemaker of the heart. It generates electrical impulses that cause the heart’s chambers to contract, setting the heart rate. The SA node typically generates 60 ...
Having an accelerated junctional rhythm occurs when the atrioventricular node in your heart beats too quickly. It happens as a result of damage to your heart’s primary natural pacemaker. There’s no ...
Answer: Enhanced parasympathetic tone and ischemia to the AV nodal artery. Also recall that the right coronary artery (RCA), in addition to supplying the right ventricle and inferior walls, also ...
The term bradycardia refers to an abnormally slow heart rate, of under 60 beats per minute (bpm). The heart has a complex system of nerves that conduct the electrical impulses fired by the sino-atrial ...
Atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is an irregular heart rhythm that can cause excessively fast heart rates. Though not usually serious, early diagnosis can help prevent severe ...
