    CHAPTER 1 Basic principles of pacing Malcolm Kirk The aim of this chapter is to give sufficient background and information about cardiac pacemakers to allow interpretation of electrocardiograms (ECGs) and telemetry strips of normal pacemaker behavior. For more in-depth information‚ such as would be necessary for programming pacemakers‚ a standard pacing text should be consulted. Several of these are listed in the bibliography. Most italicized terms are defined in the glossary at the end of the chapter

    Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? Depolarization has to do with surfaces becoming more negative or positive and reaches a certain point called a threshold. When the threshold is reached‚ an action potential is initiated. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? The threshold voltage in Activity 1 was 3.0. 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage? How does this change correlate to changes

    Introduction A nerve is an enclosed bundle of axons found in the peripheral nervous system (Easton 13). It is the pathway for electrochemical nerve impulses‚ which pass along axons of the peripheral organs. A neuron is a cell in the nervous system which plays many critical tasks like receiving sensory signals from the external and internal environments. Moreover‚ neurons join together these sensory responses to produce and transmit motor responses as a result of changes in membrane permeability

    Exercise 3: Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses Worksheet Eliciting a Nerve Impulse Activity 1: Electrical Stimulation 1. Do you see any kind of response on the oscilloscope screen? No there was no response‚ the line was flat 2. What was the threshold voltage‚ or the voltage at which you first saw an action potential? 3.0V 3. How does this tracing compare to the one that was generated at the threshold voltage? At 3.5V the high & low peaks were just slightly above and below respectively

    REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? Action potential is a quick depolarization followed by a repolarization. Depolarization is a one way trip. It also takes a substantial depolarization to cause an action potential. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? 3.0 V 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage?
