Describe the causes of the P, QRS, and T waves of an ECG, and indicate at which point in the cardiac cycle each of these waves occurs. Explain why the first heart sound occurs immediately after the QRSwave and why the second sound occurs at the time of the T wave.
Although not considered the primary pacemaker of the heart, the atrioventricular node can indeed be considered as playing SOME role in setting the rhythm of the heart (kind of a secondary pacemaker). Explain how/why.

- A normal patient has an ECG monitor attached to him/her as he/she starts exercises at the gym. The ECG recording shows a significant increase in heart rate to 220 beats/min after 20 minutes of strenuous exercise. What are the consequences and why? To answer this, be sure to address blood flow through the heart and what is happening to the blood flow, electrical impulses and pressures during each phase of the ECG (p,q,r,s,t).arrow_forwardQ) What is the name of the section mar ked in yellow on the electrocardiogram and what does it represent? RHYTHM STRIP, 11 50 mm/secl cm/my 1) QRS complex ventricular depolarization 2) P-wave depolarization of whining 3) T-wave ventricular repolarization 4) otherwisearrow_forwardThe right and left atria of the heart look alike and perform similar functional demands. The right and left ventricle are very different, structurally and functionally. Why are the atria similarities and the difference in the ventricles significant in the role they play in the functional activity of the heart? How would these differences be manifested on an EKG, with details given to the P wave and QRS complex?arrow_forward
- In an EKG reading: | the P wave corresponds to the AV node firing. the QRS complex corresponds to a time when ventricular pressure is greater than atrial pressure. When in sympathetic mode, the AV Bundle will be receiving impulses at a faster rate then when in parasympathetic mode. | The T wave represents the time when the SA node first fires. The P-R interval represents the delay that occurs when the AV Bundle transmits signals to the Purkinje fibers.arrow_forwardExplain any four problems that occur in the heart cycle because of abnormalities in the amplitudes and time duration of the waves in an ECG with neat sketches.arrow_forwardInterpret the following ECG rhythm stripsarrow_forward

Which valves are open? closed? o Which muscle fibers are contracting, if any?arrow_forwardThe left AV valve has only two large leaflets, while the right AV valve has three smaller leaflets. It is a general principle of physiology that structure is a determinant of—and has coevolved with—function. Although it is unknown why the two valves differ in structure in this way, what difference in the functional demands of the left side of the heart might explain why there is one less valve leaflet than on the right side?arrow_forwardDefine each of the following external features of the heart: auricle, coronary sulcus, anterior interventricular sulcus, and posterior interventricular sulcus.arrow_forward
