The Heart:Conduction System
The heart pumps blood through the body
This is accomplished by contraction and relaxation of the cardiac muscle tissue in the myocardium layer.
Intercalated discs allow impulses to travel rapidly between adjacent cells so they function as one rather than individual cells
Cardiac conduction system: The electrical conduction system controls the heart rate
This system creates the electrical impulses and sends them throughout the heart. These impulses make the heart contract and pump blood.
Sinoatrial Node (Part I):
located in back wall of the right atrium near the entrance of vena cava
initiates impulses 70-80 times per minute without any nerve stimulation from brain
establishes basic rhythm of the heartbeat
called the pacemaker of the heart
impulses move through atria causing the two atria to contract.
at the same time, impulses reach the second part of the conduction system
Atrioventricular Node (Part II):
located in the bottom of the right atrium near the septum
cells in the AV node conduct impulses more slowly, so there is a delay as impulses travel through the node
this allows time for atria to finish contraction before ventricles begin contracting
“Bundle of His”
From the AV node, impulses travel through to the right and left bundle branches
These branches extend to the right and left sides of the septum and bottom of the heart.
These branch a lot to form the Purkinje fibers that transmit the impulses to the myocardium (muscle tissue)
The bundle of His, bundle branches and Purkinje fibers transmit quickly and cause both ventricles to contract at the same time
Like a “phone tree”
1 - Sinoatrial node (SA node)
2 - Atrioventricular node (AV node)
3 – Bundle of His
4 - Right & Left Bundle Branches
which lead to Purkinje Fibers
