   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kids_in_the_Hall:_Brain_Candy

   Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy is a 1996 Canadian comedy film written by and starring the Canadian comedy troupe The Kids in the Hall. Directed by Kelly Makin [ 2 ] and filmed in Toronto , it followed the five-season run (1988-1995) of their television series The Kids in the Hall , which had been successful in both Canada and the United States .

3. Isovolumetric contraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovolumetric_contraction

   The isovolumetric contraction phase lasts about 0.05 seconds, [1] but this short period of time is enough to build up a sufficiently high pressure that eventually overcomes that of the aorta and the pulmonary artery upon opening of the semilunar valves. This process, therefore, helps maintain the correct unidirectional flow of blood through the ...

4. Cardiac action potential - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_action_potential

   In the heart's conduction system electrical activity that originates from the sinoatrial node (SAN) is propagated via the His-Purkinje network, the fastest conduction pathway within the heart. The electrical signal travels from the sinoatrial node, which stimulates the atria to contract, to the atrioventricular node (AVN) , which slows down ...

5. Cardiac conduction system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_conduction_system

   The cardiac conduction system (CCS, also called the electrical conduction system of the heart) [1] transmits the signals generated by the sinoatrial node – the heart's pacemaker, to cause the heart muscle to contract, and pump blood through the body's circulatory system.

6. Pacemaker current - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacemaker_current

   The funny current is highly expressed in spontaneously active cardiac regions, such as the sinoatrial node (SAN, the natural pacemaker region), the atrioventricular node (AVN) and the Purkinje fibres of conduction tissue. The funny current is a mixed sodium–potassium current that activates upon hyperpolarization at voltages in the diastolic ...

   This is a list of animated films aimed primarily at children.The films are designed to hold children's attention and often have an educational dimension, particularly around cultural values, This list has all the animated films that are always dubbed in North-West Europe, Poland, Portugal, Balkan, Baltic and Nordic countries, where generally only kids movies and kids TV shows (including all ...

8. Myocardial contractility - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_contractility

   An increase in sympathetic stimulation to the heart increases contractility and heart rate. An increase in contractility tends to increase stroke volume and thus a secondary increase in preload. An increase in preload results in an increased force of contraction by Starling's law of the heart; this does not require a change in contractility.

9. Fibrillation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillation

   This happens when muscle fibers lose contact with their innervating axon producing a spontaneous action potential, "fibrillation potential" that results in the muscle fiber's contraction. These contractions are not visible under the skin and are detectable through needle electromyography (EMG) and ultrasound. [ 8 ]
