Junctional folds increase the surface area of cell membranes in tissues like the small intestine, allowing for more efficient absorption of nutrients. They also help in cell-cell communication by providing a larger area for interactions between adjacent cells.

What is the junctional arrhythmia?

Junctional arrhythmia refers to a group of heart rhythm disorders that originate from the junctional tissue between the atria and ventricles, specifically the atrioventricular (AV) node. This type of arrhythmia can result in abnormal heart rates, typically characterized by a slower heart rate (bradycardia) due to the disruption of normal electrical conduction. Common forms include junctional escape rhythms and junctional tachycardia. Symptoms may vary from none at all to dizziness or syncope, depending on the severity and underlying cause.

Where on the rhythm strip is the P wave located for junctional rhythm?

P waves occur from the sinoatrial node and indicate the atrial component of a heart rate. Junctional rhythms occur when the AV node (below the sinoatrial node) takes over. Therefore, in most junctional rhythms there are no p waves.
