Refractory period. For a short period after the passage of an impulse, the threshold for stimulation is raised, such that if a nerve is stimulated twice in quick succession, it may not respond to the second stimulus. The absolute refractory period is the brief interval after a successful stimulus when no second shock, however maximal, can elicit another response. Its duration in mammalian A fibres is about 0.4 ms; in frog nerve at 15oC it is about 2 ms.
