Abstract:
We appreciate the concerns raised by Ali. As well recognized, Post-Pericardiotomy Syndrome (PPS) has been a very difficult syndrome to classify and understand in part relating to variable methodologic approaches in the literature, and any attempts to clarify and unify methodology will only aid in better understanding this entity. Below is a point-by-point response to concerns raised.

Correlation between ECG and Cardiac Cycle
A cardiac action potential originates in the SA node and spreads throughout the atria and the AV node in approximately 0.03 seconds. This results in the P wave in an ECG and triggers atrial contraction. The action potential is then briefly slowed at the AV node, allowing the atria to contract and fill the ventricles with blood before...
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.
