Summary Information: Atrioventricular Node

Atrioventricular Node: The atrioventricular node is a part of the electrical conduction system of the heart. The atrioventricular node is located between the atria and the ventricles of the heart and is the connecting point for the electrical conduction system between the atria and ventricles. The atrioventricular node conducts impulses from the internodal pathways of the atria to the atrioventricular bundle.

Conditions that afflict the atrioventricular node include cardiac arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, ventricular fibrillation, tachydysrhythmias, bradydysrhythmias, heart blocks, myocardial infarction, and cardiac arrest.
