Leo is a 70-year-old retiree who has been experiencing some minor chest pains lately while
exercising. His cardiologist informs him that his SA node has stopped working. Why is not the
sinus node on a sir heart b. If is able to survive without a functional SA node, explain why his
cardiologist may make ion install a heart beat more or the ECG traces shown on the back of this
page, which one represents Leo\'s condition? d. In one complete sentence, explain your answer to
(c) Include specifically how the lack o a function SA node connects with what the other ECG
represent. Alice is a 39-year-old ultra-marathoner who has been experiencing several bouts of
light- longer headedness and dizziness. Her tells her that her AV node is damaged and is no
conducting electrical signals through her heart consistently. a. of the ECG traces on the back of
this page, which one represents Alice\'s condition? b. In one complete sentence, explain your
answer to Include specifically how damage to the AV node connects with what the abnormal
components of the ECG represent.
Solution
The reason why Leo has not passed away is because SA node is just a natural pacemaker if he is
rushed to the hospital then he can be given the necessary treatment to instill an artificial device to
carry out the function.
The second part of the question he does need the pacemaker else the pumping activity of the
heart will ultimately come to a stand still thus bringing to end the circulation of the blood in his
system.
The ECG figure that best discribes the fault with the SA node is E..
