| | Cardiac depolarization detection apparatus - Patent 4354497 |
 | | A depolarization occurring at any area on the heart is first sensed by any one of the electrodes and then transmitted to a stimulation device which supplys stimulation pulses to the entire plurality of electrodes connected to the heart. |  | | For example, a depolarization of ventricular tissue resulting from an impulse propogated from an ectopic focus may be sensed at a point adjacent the focus without there being a preceding depolarization within the interventricular septum. |  | | If the conduction time grows longer, however, it may be that a naturally conducted depolarization could be sensed by one of the more remote electrode pairs 15-18, resulting in a false indication of an ectopic depolarization. |

| | Diabetes: Activation of nuclear factor-[kappa]B by depola... @ HighBeam Research |
 | | The relationships between [Ca.sup.2+]-activated pathways, their downstream targets, and the pleiotropic effects of depolarization have not been defined (7). |  | | Glucose induces pleiotropic effects in islet [beta]-cells that are depolarization and [Ca.sup.2+] dependent, and these effects are potentially mediated by activation of multiple intracellular signaling pathways. |  | | Interestingly, TNF-[alpha] treatment, unlike depolarization, activated this pathway in a MEK/ERK-independent fashion, suggesting that NF-[kappa]B dependent transcription in islet [beta]-cells can be induced by multiple pathways. |

| | Identifying Drug-Induced Changes in Electrocardiogram Results of Elderly Individuals |
 | | Common causes of artifact are muscle tremor, alternating current (AC) interference, loose electrodes, interference related to biotelemetry, and external chest compression. |  | | The sinoatrial node, located at the junction of the superior vena cava and the right atrium, is the area of the heart which, under normal conditions, depolarizes most rapidly. |  | | Depolarization spreads along the ventricular conduction system (the distal bundle branches and Purkinje fibers) first through the septum, then through the apex and into the bulk of the left and right ventricular walls. |

| | Neuroscience for Kids - Action Potential |
 | | If the neuron does not reach this critical threshold level, then no action potential will fire. |  | | Remember, sodium has a positive charge, so the neuron becomes more positive and becomes depolarized. |  | | This means that some event (a stimulus) causes the resting potential to move toward 0 mV. |

| | Sodium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Excitable cells, for example, rely on the entry of Na to cause a depolarization. |  | | An example of this is signal transduction in the human central nervous system. |  | | Sodium ions play a diverse role in many physiological processes. |

| | Depolarization |
 | | This initial phase of the action potential is called the depolarization phase. |  | | Now as the depolarization phase progresses, the status of the two physical forces that have been discussed changes. |  | | At the end of the depolarization phase, the voltage of the inside of the axon relative to the outside is positive and the relative concentration of sodium ions inside the axon is greater than at the beginning of the action potential. |

| | Depolarization - definition of Depolarization in Encyclopedia |
 | | Depolarization of membrane potentials is important for other cell types, particularly muscle cells. |  | | Depolarization typically results from the influx of positively charged ions (such as sodium or calcium) into the cell. |  | | In neuroscience, depolarization refers to the event a neuron undergoes when its membrane potential grows more positive with respect to the extracellular solution. |
