3. Pacemaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker

   A pacemaker, also known as an artificial cardiac pacemaker, is an implanted medical device that generates electrical pulses delivered by electrodes to one or more of the chambers of the heart. Each pulse causes the targeted chamber(s) to contract and pump blood, [3] thus regulating the function of the electrical conduction system of the heart.

4. Cardiac pacemaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_pacemaker

   An artificial cardiac pacemaker (or artificial pacemaker, so as not to be confused with the natural cardiac pacemaker) or just pacemaker is an implanted medical device that generates electrical impulses delivered by electrodes to the chambers of the heart either the upper atria, or lower ventricles to cause the targeted chambers to contract and ...

5. Pacemaker syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_syndrome

   [18] [20] Since its first discovery, there have been many definitions of pacemaker syndrome, and the understanding of the cause of pacemaker syndrome is still under investigation. In a general sense, pacemaker syndrome can be defined as the symptoms associated with right ventricular pacing relieved with the return of A-V and V-V synchrony. [17]

6. Junctional rhythm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junctional_rhythm

   When this happens, the heart's atrioventricular node or bundle of His can take over as the pacemaker, starting the electrical signal that causes the heart to beat. [ 1 ] [ 5 ] Depending on where the rhythm originates in the AV node, the atria can contract before ventricular contraction due to retrograde conduction , during ventricular ...

7. Antiarrhythmic agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiarrhythmic_agent

   Antiarrhythmic agents, also known as cardiac dysrhythmia medications, are a class of drugs that are used to suppress abnormally fast rhythms (tachycardias), such as atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia and ventricular tachycardia.

8. Cardiac action potential - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_action_potential

   [1] [2] This means that all atrial cells can contract together, and then all ventricular cells. Different shapes of the cardiac action potential in various parts of the heart Rate dependence of the action potential is a fundamental property of cardiac cells and alterations can lead to severe cardiac diseases including cardiac arrhythmia and ...
