T-wave
Amiodarone blocks the
voltage -gated rapid delayed
rectifying potassium
channel.
K+ cannot exit the cell as
quickly since the channels
are blocked.

Depolarization
K+ channel blockade by
amiodarone
Repolarization
Partial repolarization
Plateau
The repolarization phase of
the action potential is
prolonged and the action
potential duration is
increased, causing decreased
excitability of the myocyte.

QRS complex
Time
Electrical activity (mV)
HEART RATE
With amiodarone
Without amiodarone
The decreased excitability
leads to slowing of the
heart rate. The QRS duration
increases as well as the QT
interval.

Calcium binding to troponin
displaces tropomyosin from
the myosin binding sites on
the actin filaments
Myosin, with an ADP and
phosphate attached, binds to
actin to form a cross
bridge. Myosin performs a
powerstroke, drawing the
actin filaments together.
Many actin filaments pulled
together at the same time
leads to muscle contraction.
