Question
Answer
show Parasympathetic via vagus nerve Sympathetic via postganglionic fibres Somatic afferent fibres Intrinsic cardiac nervous system  
🗑
show Sympathetic - faster heart rate, faster conduction velocity, stronger contraction and faster relaxation Parasympathetic - slower heart rate, slower conduction velocity - may innervate ventricles but limited evidence  
🗑
show Mainly on If, Ica and Ik - these control heart rate Increases these to give a faster pacemaker, upstroke and recovery  
🗑
show Can activate K channels, causing hyperpolarisation Antagonises the sympathetic NS and opens IKACh, reducing heart rate and hyperpolarising membrane potential  
🗑
show Lack of stabilising Ik - more positive and alterable resting potential Stabilised by IKACh Early pacemaker current - If Late pacemaker current - IcaT Upstroke - IcaL Recovery - Ik  
🗑
Effect of beta receptors   show
🗑
show ACh and parasympathetic nerve stimulation hyperpolarise the membrane potential, decrease pacemaker and upstroke rate and rate of beating Increased RR interval Longer phase 4  
🗑
Positive ionotropic effects of sympathetic nerve stimulation   show
🗑
show Activates adenyl cyclase - cAMP - PKA Phosphorylates L type calcium channels, phospholamban, Ryr, myofilaments Increases calcium induced calcium release from stores and inhibits PLB thus enhancing calcium reuptake  
🗑
Ionotropic effects of sympathetic nerve stimulation   show
🗑
Evidence that IcaL is altered by PKA   show
🗑
Role of protein phosphatase 2A   show
🗑
Changed in pressure volume loops during exercise   show
🗑
Roles of pharmacological compounds   show
🗑
show Digitalis inhibits NKX Ca sensitiser alters calcium sensitivity of TnC PDE inhibitors inhibit phosphodiesterase - increase conc of cAMP  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
