Isovolumetric contraction happens during 

systole 

100

The P wave signals 

signals that comes from the atria contracting 

100

ECG's are used to indicate 

Heart disorders, Myocardial infarction, abnormalities in conduction pathways, heart enlargement, and electrolyte and hormonal imbalances. 

100

The first sound (S1) is known as...

Lubb
100

Flow through the coronary arteries is greatest when 

When the heart relaxes 

200

Systole means 

contraction

200

Diastole means

Relaxation

200

This disorder is known for causing a fast heartbeat

tachycardia

200

This sound is known for being softer and sharper. 

S2

200

This is needed in order for fluid to flow 

a pressure gradient 

300

When this ion enters into the cell the muscle contracts 

Calcium

300

When does ventricular ejection happens 

ventricular pressure exceeds arterial pressure and semilunar (aortic, pulmonary) valves open

300

This disorder is caused by a failure of any part of the cardiac conduction signals.

Heart Block 

300

This heart sound is usually heard as a gallop 

S3

300

When the ventrical contracts this rises 

pressure 

400

This process is used in order to help the heart be fatigue resistant and allows it to contract for a life time. 

Anaerobic respiration

400

During this stage ventricular filling begins again

when the AV valves open

400
This disorder is sa serious arrhythmia caused by electrical signals randomly traveling. Hallmark of a heart attack. 

Ventricular fibrillation

400

When this sound is heard in older people it can be indicative of a dying heart or a heart murmmer. 

S3

400
When the mitral valve is open what happens to blood 

blood flows into the left ventricle 

500

This part of the ECG shows cardiac contraction

QRS segment 

500

When people say they feel like their heart skipped a beat what do they actually feel 

extra firing in the ventricles

500

This disorder is can appear with a ventricular ectopic focus with an extra eat, may come from stress, lack of sleep, or stimulants 

Premature ventricular contraction

500

This sound occurs after blood from the pulmonary trunk and aorta flows back and fills the cusps, which closes the semilunar valves 

S2
500

The semilunar valves are under pressure from what when the ventricles relax 

blood in the vessels
