disease of the coronary arteries
Sinoatrial node
pacemaker of the heart
First two steps
Superior vena cava and right atrium
Coronary Angiograph
Radiological procedure that visualizes the coronary arties
slow heartbeat
bradycardia
Varicose Veins
Twisted, enlarged veins
Atrioventricular node
causes the atria to contract
Where does blood flow after the tricuspid valve (three steps)
tricuspid valve, right ventricle, and pulmonic valve
Open heart surgery
Surgical procedure where the sternum is cut in half
arteries
carry blood from the heart
Endocarditis
inflammation of the inner lining of the heart
Bundle of His
impulse to the septum
Steps after pulmonic lungs (3)
lungs, left atrium, and bicuspid valve
pacemaker insertion
implantation of a battery
microscopic vessels
capillaries
Aneurysm
Dilation of an artery
Perkinje fibers
impulse of the fibers
after bicuspid valve
left ventricle and aortic valve
Angioplasty
procedure that reopens narrowed blood vessels
electrocardiograph
to see the electrical impulse of the heart
Angina
Chest pain caused by obstruction of the coronary arteries
Sole function of the heart
spreading contraction
last step
Aorta to the body/cells
Defibrillation
emergency treatment to restart the heart
veins
carry blood to the heart
