System
2. Pacemakers
Natural: SA Node = 60-100 beats/minute
of the heart
Backup: AV Node = 40-60 beats/minute
Backup: Purkinje Fibers (ventricles) = 20-40
beats/minute
3. SA Node • Intrinsic Pacemaker of the heart
•Rate 60-100 beats/min
•RA (Right Atrium), close to SVC (Superior Vena
Cava)
•Blood supply from RCA (Right Coronary Artery)
& LCA (Left Coronary Artery)
4. Interatrial/Intern- Transmits impulses from the SA node to the AV
odal Tracts node through the RA & LA
5. AV node • Slows conduction (40-60 beats/min)
•Physiologic delay allows atrial kick on floor of
RA near tricuspid valve

The heart has two
