Conclusion for Cardiac Electrophysiology & excitation- contraction coupling

  • Spontaneous decline in Pk in pacemaker cells of SA node
  • Prepotential
  • Firing Level --> AP
  • Cell to cell conduction through Atrial Myocytes
  • Excitation- contraction of Atria
  • Atrial Systole followed by Atrial Diastole
  • Spread along the conducting system (HIS -Purkinje System)
  • Excitation- contraction of ventricles
  • Ventricular Systole followed by ventricular diastole
