Conduction System of the Heart

Components of the Conduction System Sinoatrial Node : located in back wall of the right atrium near the entrance of vena cava initiates impulses 70-80 times per minute without any nerve stimulation from brain establishes basic rhythm of the heartbeat called the pacemaker of the heart impulses move through atria causing the two atria to contract. at the same time, impulses reach the second part of the conduction system

Components of the Conduction System Continued …. Atrioventricular Node located in the bottom of the right atrium near the septum cells in the AV node conduct impulses more slowly, so there is a delay as impulses travel through the node this allows time for atria to finish contraction before ventricles begin contracting

Septum

Atrioventricular Bundle “Bundle of His” From the AV node, impulses travel through to the right and left bundle branches These branches extend to the right and left sides of the septum and bottom of the heart.

Atrioventricular Bundle Continued…. These branch a lot to form the Purkinje fibers that transmit the impulses to the myocardium (muscle tissue) The bundle of His, bundle branches and Purkinje fibers transmit quickly and cause both ventricles to contract at the same time

Atrioventricular Bundle Continued…. As the ventricles contract, blood is forced out through the semilunar valves into the pulmonary trunk and the aorta. After the ventricles complete their contraction phase, they relax and the SA node initiates another impulse to start another cardiac cycle.
