Description
The (AVN) Atrial Ventricular Node is a group of specialized cells located in the lower part of the right atrium above the tricuspid valve base. Its function is to Delay, Relay and Filter impulses as they pass through the Ventricles.
The nodal cells have pacemaker properties and can pace the heart at a rate of 40-60b/min. Rhythms coming from the AV junction are called .Junctional dysrhythmias. The electrical impulse must travel backward
( Retrograde) to activate the atria.
