Sinoatrial block a lag between the time that the SA node fires and actual depolarization of the atria. This rhythm is not recognizable on an ECG strip because a strip does not denote when the SA node fires. It can be detected only during an electrophysiology study when a small wire is placed against the SA node from within the heart and the electrical impulses can be recorded as they leave the p-cells in the centre of the node [ see pacemaker potential ], followed by observing a delay in the onset of the p wave on the ECG. Second degree SA
Orbital node moves south through the plane. In the case of objects outside the Solar System, the ascending node is the node where the orbiting secondary passes away from the observer, and the descending node is the node where it moves towards the observer. The position of the node may be used as one of a set of parameters, called "orbital elements", which describe the orbit. This is done by specifying the longitude of the ascending node (or, sometimes, the longitude of the node.) The line of nodes is the intersection of the object's orbital plane with the plane of reference. It
