Question
Chapter 19.6, Problem 12AYLO
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The general terms for chemical agents that influence the cardiac contractility with perfect examples.
Introduction:
Myocardial muscles of the heart undergoes severe contraction and relaxation during every heartbeat. This contraction and relaxation is effected by the collagen and elastic fibers in the heart muscles. However, there is a lot of agents that increase the heart contraction rate.

The ECG records the electrical
stimulation of cardiac muscle by
the conduction system and not
the contraction of the muscle
itself.
True or False
The ECG records the electrical stimulation of cardiac muscle by theconduction system and not the contraction of the muscle itself. True or False
A normal patient has an ECG monitor attached to him/her as he/she starts exercises at the gym. The ECG recording shows a significant increase in heart rate to 220 beats/min after 20 minutes of strenuous exercise. What are the consequences and why?
To answer this, be sure to address blood flow through the heart and what is happening to the blood flow, electrical impulses and pressures during each phase of the ECG (p,q,r,s,t).
