Junctional rhythm Junctional rhythm Junctional rhythm describes an abnormal heart rhythm resulting from impulses coming from a locus of tissue in the area of the atrioventricular node, the "junction" between atria and ventricles. Under normal conditions, the heart's sinoatrial node determines the rate by which the organ beats – in other words, it is the heart's "pacemaker". The electrical activity of sinus rhythm originates in the sinoatrial node and depolarizes the atria. Current then passes from the atria through the atrioventricular node and into the bundle of His, from which it travels along Purkinje fibers to reach and depolarize the ventricles. This
Sentinel node list, can be simplified remarkably using a sentinel node to demarcate the beginning and end of the list. Following is a Python implementation of a circular doubly-linked list: Notice how the codice_13 method takes the node that will be displaced by the new node in the parameter codice_14. For appending to the left, this is the head of a non-empty list, while for appending to right, it is the tail. But because of how the linkage is setup to refer back to the sentinel, the code just works for empty lists as well, where codice_14 will be the sentinel node.
