Methods for ECG Evaluation of Indicators of Cardiac Risk, and Susceptibility to Aconitine-induced Arrhythmias in Rats Following Status Epilepticus
Published on: April 5, 2011
Abstract:
Experiments on 25 dogs demonstrated that ion redistribution between the cellular and extracellular sectors develops during recovery after 5-min clinical death from acute coronary myocardial infarction. Early after resuscitation (5 min-9 h) sodium ion concentration in the cells increases, while that of potassium decreases. Later (9-24 h) part of potassium cations migrates from cells to cell-to-cell space and both cellular and extracellular potassium fractions decrease.

Cardiac Action Potential
The cardiac action potential process involves a series of phases characterized by the movement of ions across the cardiac cell membranes, leading to the depolarization and repolarization of the cardiac myocytes.
