Cardiac physiology syncytium, the sinoatrial node, the atrioventricular node, the bundle of His (atrioventricular bundle), the bundle branches, and the Purkinje cells. Normal sinus rhythm is established by the sinoatrial (SA) node, the heart's pacemaker. The SA node is a specialized grouping of cardiomyocytes in the upper and back walls of the right atrium very close to the opening of the superior vena cava. The SA node has the highest rate of depolarization. This impulse spreads from its initiation in the SA node throughout the atria through specialized internodal pathways, to the atrial myocardial contractile cells and the atrioventricular node. The internodal
Node (Well of Echoes) or node-drainers that drain the node of the field and render anything that draws power from it useless. Mancers who cannot draw from a distat node's field must rely on charged crystals, while clankers, constructs and any other devices of the Art will not work. There are also rare places called anti-nodes, where the Art does not work or is at least greatly reduced. Node (Well of Echoes) Nodes are fictional, naturally occurring phenomena in Ian Irvine’s "The Three Worlds Cycle" of novels. They often occur in places where there is a significant landmark, such as on a hill or
