  • Depolarisation of the atria means contraction of the atria in the heart. 
  • The depolarisation is triggered by an electrical impulse from the sino-atrial node (SA Node) located in the right atrium. 
  • From there, the depolarisation impulse travels rapidly to the left atrium and branches off near another node called the AV node (atrioventricular node) that delays the impulse for a very short time. 
  • Then the impulse travels through a bunch of fibers to both ventricles that causes them to contract.
