Supernormal Conduction Velocity in Human Muscle 29 LONG-LASTING SUPERNORMAL CONDUCTION VELOCITY AFTER SUSTAINED MAXIMAL ISOMETRIC CONTRACTION IN HUMAN MUSCLE
We studied muscle fatigue and recovery on healthy males by means of surface and invasive EMG, on biceps brachii and brachioradialis muscle. Fatigue was induced by 1 min of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC), recovery was studied during 60 min (surface EMG) and 15 min (invasive EMG). The main finding was a long-lasting 'supernormal' muscle fiber conduction velocity (MFCV) during recovery. After...
متن کاملConcealed and supernormal atrioventricular conduction.
THE FAILURE of a cardiac impulse to traverse the entire atrioventricular (AV) conducting system is called concealed conduction. Electrocardiographically, the effects of concealed conduction are reflected in the conduction and/or formation of subsequent beats.1 The concept of concealed conduction can be applied to explain (1) post-extrasystolic prolongation of the P-R interval, (2) the irregular...
متن کاملSupernormal excitability and conduction in the His-Purkinje system of the dog.
The electrophysiological characteristics of the period of supernormal excitability and supernormal conduction were investigated in the isolated canine His-Purkinje system. Strength-interval curves were determined as the minimum transmembrane current required to bring the impaled fiber to threshold potential following a conducted action potential. During the period of supernormal excitability, 1...
متن کامل'Supernormal' phase in hemiblock conduction.
A case is described where the basic sinus rhythms is associated with an advanced degree of left anterior hemiblock. The rhythm is complicated by atrial extrasystoles, associated with a lesser degree of left anterior hemiblock. This paradox of 'supernormality' is explained on a critical interplay of differential refractoriness within the divisions of the left bundle-branch.
متن کاملEffect of external potassium and acetylstrophanthidin on conduction velocity of isolated canine Purkinje fibers.
Isolated long Purkinje fibers were perfused in oxygenated Tyrode's solution. The conduction velocity of action potentials driven from one end of a fiber at cycle lengths of 300 and 1000 msec was measured using silver wire surface electrodes. Action potentials were recorded using glass microelectrodes. Tyrode's solutions of different potassium concentrations were used, and preparations were equi...
