Ventricular Cardiomyocyte
Extracellular Space
Cytosol
Quiniine, enters the muscle
cell by passive diffusion
A hydrogen ion attaches to
the amine group, ionizing
Lidocaine into its
quaternary form
Ionized Lidocaine binds to
sodium ion channels, locking
them in an open state and
slowing depolarization
Membrane potential (mV)
Time (ms)
By slowing depolarization,
the cell cannot effectively
propagate an action
potential and electrical
signals for ventricular
contractions are slowed
Normal action potential
Quinidine action potential
Lidocaine slows the rise of
cardiac action potential
through its sodium channel
blockage, and shortens the
repolarization period,
reducing the overall
duration of the action
potential
