With atrial depolarizationcomplete, the impulse isdelayed at the AV node.

Ventricular depolarizationbegins at apex, causing theQRS complex. Atrialrepolarization occurs.

(a) Normal sinus rhythm.

(c) Second-degree heart block. Some P waves are not conducted through the AV node; hence more P than QRS waves are seen. In this tracing, the ratio of P waves to QRS waves is mostly 2:1.

(d) Ventricular fibrillation. These chaotic, grossly irregular ECG deflections are seen in acute heart attack and electrical shock.

(b) Junctional rhythm. The SA node is nonfunctional, P waves are absent, and heart is paced by the AV node at 40 - 60 beats/min.

In catheter ablation, catheters are threaded through the blood vessels to the inner heart, and electrodes at the catheter tips

transmit energy to destroy a small spot of heart tissue.
