Extrasystole heartbeats, ECG artwork
Extrasystole heartbeats, ECG artwork. Diagram showing the electrical activity of the atrium (top) and ventricle (bottom) of a human heart during extrasystole. Premature ventricular contraction (PVC), or extrasystole, is a relatively common event where the heartbeat is initiated by Purkinje fibres in the ventricles rather than by the sinoatrial node, the normal heartbeat initiator

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate artwork of extrasystole heartbeats through an electrocardiogram (ECG) illustration. The diagram vividly displays the electrical activity in both the atrium and ventricle of a human heart during extrasystole, a condition characterized by premature ventricular contractions (PVC). The white background beautifully contrasts with the red traces, emphasizing the abnormality in comparison to a healthy heartbeat. This thought-provoking image allows for easy comparison between normal and unhealthy cardiac rhythms. With its focus on initiation and beating, this artwork delves into the complexities of our circulatory system. It highlights how PVCs are initiated by Purkinje fibers within the ventricles instead of their usual origin at the sinoatrial node. As a medical illustration, it serves as an invaluable tool for cardiology professionals studying cardiovascular health. By providing cutouts and detailed visuals of various heartbeats, it aids in diagnosing conditions related to cardio-electrical activity. Overall, this mesmerizing ECG artwork captures not only scientific precision but also artistic beauty. Its significance lies in promoting better understanding of extrasystole and its impact on overall healthcare.
