What is depolarization of a neurotransmitter?

Depolarization stimulates the release of the neuro-transmitter from the terminal end of the neuron.


What molecules cause polarization and depolarization?

Sodium ions cause depolarization and potassium ions cause repolarization.

The QRS complex in an electrocardiogram results from?

An Electrocardiogram of a single heart beat shows three distinct waves. These are the P, QRS and T Waves. The QRS wave (normally the largest spike) in the electrocardiogram, is that of the ventricles depolarizing and contracting.


What is a non - Depolarization?

Non depolarization means the muscle relaxant effect will stay in the body. needs to reverse with prostigmine and atropine.

Does the p wave in an ekg indicate atrial depolarization?

No it does not. Atrial repolarization is generally not visible on the telemetry strip because it happens at the same time as ventricular depolarization (QRS complex). The P wave represents atrial DEpolarization (and atrial systole). Atrial repolarization happens during atrial diastole (and ventricular systole).


What is self propagated depolarization?

Does depolarization mean contraction?

yes


The p wave corresponds to depolarization of the muscle fibers of the?

The p wave on a heart telemetry monitor represents the depolarization of the atria of the heart.


The p wave of the electrocardiogram is a signal from?

The P wave on ECG corresponds to electrical depolarization of the atria. It should be positive in lead II and negative in aVR when the P wave originates in the sinoatrial node.
