When the heart repolarizes,
the normal electrical conduction may assert itself, in which case the ventricular arrhythmia is terminated.
Not exact matches
Frey and Halatek compare this type of behavior to the effect of a cardiac pacemaker, which counteracts arrhythmias by applying
electrical impulses to restore the
normal pattern of impulse
conduction.
Only a fraction of the
electrical impulses are able to travel across the AV node and down through the heart's
normal conduction system (the «wiring») to make the ventricles contract.
«The reason for his fast heart rate was due to a congenital problem called an accessory pathway, where the
electrical conduction in his heart has the
normal pathway plus an extra pathway.
