1、 The 12-Lead electrocardiogramLocation of the Heart The heart is located between the lungs behind the sternum and above the diaphragm.It is surrounded by the pericardium.Its size is about that of a fist,and its weight is about 250-300 g.Its center is located about 1.5 cm to the left of the midsagitt

2、al plane.Location of the heart in the thoraxAnatomy of the heart The walls of the heart are composed of cardiac muscle,called myocardium.It consists of four compartments:the right and left atria and ventriclesThe Heart Valves The tricuspid valve regulates blood flow between the right atrium and righ

3、t ventricle.The pulmonary valve controls blood flow from the right ventricle into the pulmonary arteries The mitral valve lets oxygen-rich blood from your lungs pass from the left atrium into the left ventricle.The aortic valve lets oxygen-rich blood pass from the left ventricle into the aorta,then

4、to the bodyBlood circulation via heart The blood returns from the systemic circulation to the right atrium and from there goes through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle.It is ejected from the right ventricle through the pulmonary valve to the lungs.Oxygenated blood returns from the lungs to

5、 the left atrium,and from there through the mitral valve to the left ventricle.Finally blood is pumped through the aortic valve to the aorta and the systemic circulation.Electrical activation of the heart In the heart muscle cell,or myocyte,electric activation takes place by means of the same mechan

6、ism as in the nerve cell,i.e.,from the inflow of Na ions across the cell membrane.The amplitude of the action potential is also similar,being 100 mV for both nerve and muscle.The duration of the cardiac impulse is,however,two orders of magnitude longer than in either nerve cell or sceletal muscle ce

7、ll.As in the nerve cell,repolarization is a consequence of the outflow of K ions.The duration of the action impulse is about 300 ms.Electrophysiology of the cardiac muscle cellMechanical contraction of Cardiac Muscle Associated with the electric activation of cardiac muscle cell is its mechanical co

10、ontract.The Conduction SystemConduction on the Heart The sinoatrial node in humans is in the shape of a crescent and is about 15 mm long and 5 mm wide.The SA nodal cells are self-excitatory,pacemaker cells.They generate an action potential at the rate of about 70 per minute.From the sinus node,activ

11、ation propagates throughout the atria,but cannot propagate directly across the boundary between atria and ventricles.The atrioventricular node(AV node)is located at the boundary between the atria and ventricles;it has an intrinsic frequency of about 50 pulses/min.If the AV node is triggered with a h

12、igher pulse frequency,it follows this higher frequency.In a normal heart,the AV node provides the only conducting path from the atria to the ventricles.Propagation from the AV node to the ventricles is provided by a specialized conduction system.Proximally,this system is composed of a common bundle,

13、called the bundle of His(after German physician Wilhelm His,Jr.,1863-1934).More distally,it separates into two bundle branches propagating along each side of the septum,constituting the right and left bundle branches.(The left bundle subsequently divides into an anterior and posterior branch.)Even m

14、ore distally the bundles ramify into Purkinje fibers (named after Jan Evangelista Purkinje(Czech;1787-1869)that diverge to the inner sides of the ventricular walls.Propagation along the conduction system takes place at a relatively high speed once it is within the ventricular region,but prior to thi

15、s(through the AV node)the velocity is extremely slow.From the inner side of the ventricular wall,the many activation sites cause the formation of a wavefront which propagates through the ventricular mass toward the outer wall.This process results from cell-to-cell activation.After each ventricular m
