100
This is the name of the upper chambers in the heart
What is the Atria
100
This vessel brings blood to the heart
What is the Vena Cava
100
This structure is known as the heart's natural pacemaker
What is the SA node
100
This test measure the electrical activity in the heart
What is the EKG
100
leads V1-V6 are known as this type of lead
What is unipolar precordial leads
200
This structure divides the ventricles
What is the septum
200
This is the largest artery in the body
What is the aorta
200
This is the location of the Purkinjie fibers
What is at the bottom of the ventricles
200
This is a type of angina that occurs at rest and is not relieved by nitrates
What is Unstable angina
200
These three leads are known as the "Inferior" leads
What is II, III and AVF
300
This is the thickest ventricular wall
What is the left ventricle
300
These vessels are semilunar valves at their entrance
What is the pulmonary artery and the aorta
300
These are the "strings" that pull on the AV valves
What is the Chordae tendonae
300
The acronym NSTEMI
What is Non ST Elevation MI
300
This is the normal range for the Ejection Fraction
What is 55-75%
400
The lining of the right ventricle is called this
What is the endometrium
400
This is the only artery in the body that carries deoxygenated blood
What is the pulmonary artery
400
This is the name of the muscle that pulls on the "strings" that pull on the AV valves
What is papillary muscle
400
Transmural MI is another tern used for this
What is STEMI
400
ST depression on a 12 lead EKG is indicative of this
What is myocardial ischemia
500
These chambers hold oxygenated blood
What is the left ventricle and the left atrium
500
At this structure, the blood from the coronary vessels enters the heart
What is the coronary sinus
500
This ventricle pumps blood through the pulmonary circulation
What is the right ventricle
500
This vessel feeds the left ventricle ans is known as the "Widow Maker"
What is the left Anterior Descending Artery
500
This is the result of complete occlusion of the coronary artery lumen, most commonly by the development of a thrombus in the vessel
What is Acute Coronary Syndrome
