    typically permits the membrane potential to reach the threshold potential at which it fires the next action potential (pacemaker potential). Thus‚ the pacemaker potential is what drives the self-generated rhythmic firing. This is known as cardiac muscle automaticity.[2] Pacemaker potentials are fired by sinoatrial node (SAN)‚ but also by the other foci. However‚ the last ones have firing frequencies slower than the SAN’s. When other foci attempt to fire at their intrinsic rate‚ they can’t because
