To transfer electrical activity to pakinji mucsles
The right bundle carries nerve impulses that cause contraction of the right ventricle (the lower chamber of the heart) and the left bundle carries nerve impulses that cause contraction of the left ventricle.
There are two bundle branches, right and left.
SA node, Internodal pathways, AV node, Bundle of His, Bundle branches, Purkinje fibers.
Nerve impulses come through the sinus node of the heart to the bundle of His and then move into the right and left bundle branches.
SA node, AV node, AV Bundle, Bundle branches, subedocardial branches (purkinje fibers)
Bundle branches are part of the heart's conduction system, specifically responsible for transmitting electrical impulses from the atrioventricular (AV) node to the ventricles. There are two main bundle branches: the right bundle branch, which conducts impulses to the right ventricle, and the left bundle branch, which splits into two further branches to distribute impulses to the left ventricle. This coordination ensures that the ventricles contract in a synchronized manner, allowing for efficient pumping of blood. Any blockages or damage to these branches can lead to arrhythmias or other cardiac issues.
bundle branches
Bundle is a noun (a bundle of something) and a verb (to bundle something).
sinoatrial (SA) node, atrioventricular (AV) node, atrioventricular (AV) bundle, right and left bundle branches, Perkinje fibers
The impulse starts in the right atria in the sinus node, then travels through the intratrial fibers for atrial contraction, then travels down to the the av node where it is delayed, then travels down through the bundle branches to the purkinjee fibers to the ventricular myocardium for contraction.
This si known as a Bundle Branch Block - and refers to an anomaly of a blockage in the nerve system of the heart at the bundle branches.
The bundle of HIS is responsible for conducting electrical signals from the atria to the ventricles in the heart. This pathway allows for coordinated contraction of the heart chambers, ensuring efficient blood pumping.
