«These electrolytes in turn support nerve conduction, muscle contraction, and maintain normal heart rhythm.»
Magnesium also plays a role in the active transport of calcium and potassium ions across cell membranes, a process that is important to nerve impulse conduction, muscle contraction, and normal heart rhythm [3].
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 specific arrhythmia with this disease is called ventricular premature complexes (VPC), these are early abnormal heart beats originating from the heart muscle instead of the specialized conduction tissue in the heart where normal heart beats originate.
