Sentence examples for impulse conduction from inspiring English sources

In neurapraxia there is temporary blockage of impulse conduction, although the axons remain intact.

In this situation, slowed impulse conduction in the ventricle leads to the generation of ectopic impulses (electrical impulses derived from an area of the heart other than the sinus node) that are primarily the result of temporal dispersion of the impulse between adjacent areas of the ventricle.

By inserting microelectrodes into the giant nerve fibres of the squid Loligo forbesi, they were able to show that the electrical potential of a fibre during conduction of an impulse exceeds the potential of the fibre at rest, contrary to the accepted theory, which postulated a breakdown of the nerve membrane during impulse conduction.

Ultimately, efficient remyelination is accomplished when new oligodendrocytes reinvest nude neuronal axons, restoring the normal properties of impulse conduction.

It may cause AV block and VT along with coronary vasospasm as a consequence of the ischemic impulse conduction system.

However, both doses of lidocaine significantly reduced pain after step-ups, compared to placebo, indicating that lidocaine in this setting affected predominantly impulse generation and not impulse conduction.

Even the high-dose lidocaine resulted in limited effects on nerve-impulse conduction as judged by the effect on QST variables.

The mechanisms involve autonomic transmitters, changes in impulse formation, conduction and refractoriness [ 3, 4].

Under all these circumstances, the impulse is conducted through the slowly conducting working myocardium, rather than through the rapidly conducting specialized conduction system.

Exclusion criteria were: any impulse generation or conduction disease which could affect echocardiographic findings, or makes it impossible to measure certain echocardiographic parameters.

Despite the rapid propagation (3 4 m/s) of the electrical impulse through the conduction tissue, activation of the ventricles occurs over a certain amount of time.
