Cardiac Electrophysiology divided into two lectures: 1 - Ventricular action potential (this one) 2 - Pacemaker action potentials Outline: - During exercise, the heart increases CO (Cardiac Output) - This is achieved by increasing HR and SV (Heart Rate and Stroke Volume) - These two lectures are devoted to the electrophysiological aspects of these changes - For most of us the terminal event will be a cardiac arrhythmia...but what causes them?

There are three main functions of ICa. These are?
(select all that apply)

Selecciona una o más de las siguientes respuestas posibles:

  • Provides inward current, which helps maintain long AP.

  • Provides a small fraction of the Ca, which triggers contraction.

  • Triggers Ca release from the SR (through the process of CICR - Calcium-Induced Calcium Release).

  • Helps marble meat properly.
