The "nodes" in the heart are the sinoatrial, or SA, node, which is found in the R atrium and is considered the primary pacemaker of the heart. The atrioventricular node, or AV node, is located in the right atrium just above the medial leaflet of the tricuspid valve. It allows for the electrical impulses generated in the atrium to be transmitted to the ventricles and to cause ventricular contraction.

What is another name for SA nodes of the heart?

What does the heart have that make sures the heart is beating at the right speed?
the SA and AV nodes in the heart produce electrical impulses that cause the heart muscle to contract or "beat", these nodes are controlled by the medulla and pons in the brain stem Excuse me but put it in a way that a 5th grader could understand. Thx

Nodes in the heart?

What is the treatment when the AV and SA nodes fail?
If the AV and SA nodes fail, a pacemaker may be implanted to regulate the heart's rhythm. In severe cases, a heart transplant may be necessary. Medications to control heart rate and rhythm may also be prescribed.
What is another name for SA nodes of the heart?

What is the name of the lymph nodes located above the heart?
The lymph nodes located above the heart are primarily referred to as the supraclavicular lymph nodes. These nodes are situated above the clavicle and play a crucial role in draining lymphatic fluid from the head, neck, and upper extremities. They are important in the immune response and can be involved in various medical conditions, including infections and cancers.

What is the function of a nodes?
There are a couple of different nodes in the body, and they refer to different things, but since your question is posted under cardiovascular health, you are probably referring to either lymph nodes or the heart's conduction system. Lymph nodes basically act as filters to clean the extracellular fluid before it reenters circulation, and is part of the immune system where white blood cells mature. There are also nodes like the sinoatrial node (SA) and the atrioventricular (AV) node. They are what act as pacemakers for your heart, driving the periodic electrical impulses that cause a heart beat.
What if neither SA Node or the AV Node of the heart work?
If neither of the nodes work then the heart will be unable to contract its muscles to pump blood.
What is the importance of the lymph nodes?
The lpmph vessel is important for your heart because it is a important blood vessel in your body
