Sinus
The "anterooms" of the heart are also known as the atria.
coronary sinus
Sinus activiy is really not recorded on the ECG(EKG) only the atria's response to it. Hence, Sinus Arrest and Sinus Exit Block are determined on the basis of what we can see. The absense of the P wave and it's recurance at the next expected intereval is considered a Sinus Exit Block; meaning the sinus node did its job, but the impluse was blocked form the rest of the atria. The mechanism of such blocking is not fully understood at this point In sinus arrest the the pause is not accurate to the next expected cardiac cycle thus is considered a sinus arrest - meaning that something stopped the sinus node activity for a time (usually just seconds). Of the two Sinus Exit Block carries the least risk of symptoms for the patient.
Atria is the plural of atrium. An atrium is one of the two smaller chambers at the top of the heart.
The right atrium receives blood from the superior and inferior vena cava, as well as the coronary sinus. The left atrium receives blood from the pulmonary veins.
The are extentions of the Atria.
the atria
The function of the coronary sulcus is to ultimately transfer blood between the cardiac muscles. The coronary sulcus is located between the ventricles and the atria. Reference: medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com
The atria are a part of your heart which is in the circulatory system
The Atria and Atrium
In sinus rhythm with PACs (Premature Atrial Contractions), the heart's electrical activity is disrupted by early signals originating in the atria. This can cause an irregular heartbeat. In sinus rhythm with PVCs (Premature Ventricular Contractions), the disruption comes from early signals in the ventricles, leading to extra heartbeats. Both conditions can cause palpitations and other symptoms, but the source of the abnormal electrical activity differs between the two.
