Keep up buttercup
A heartrate less than 60 beats per minute in fancy medial terminology is called this
Bradycardia
This vessel feeds the Inferior wall most of the time
Right Coronary Artery
Objective way with which to quantify the minor amplitude in motion
Myocardial imaging
Often referred to as Broken Heart Syndrome
Takotsubo
A disease that causes restricted blood flow to the arms, legs, or other body parts. It occurs when arteries or veins get narrower, become blocked, or spasm
Peripheral vascular disease
For a patient with chronic A-fib, this chamber can't be paced
Right Atrium
Echo uses this to image structures
Sound waves
Normal GLS is represented by this value
<20%
This portion of the Cardiac muscle is most commonly found to not be moving during systole
Apical wall
First treatment of PVD
Medical management, Smoking cessation, nutrition counseling, exercise
T waves represent this action
Ventricular repolarization
These three main vessels feed the heart
LAD, LCX, RCA
Changes in GLS precede reductions in this in relation to cancer treatment from cardiotoxicity
LVEF
The exact cause of Takotsubo is unknown; however, it is often through that this could be related to this type of stress
Emotional
This test compares the blood pressure measured at your ankle with the blood pressure measured at your arm.
Ankle-brachial index (ABI)
Magnets placed on pacemakers result in this
Pace
Damage has occurred to the heart muscle which results in a reduction of funtion
Akinesis
Unique acoustic fingerprint tracked frame by frame
Speckle tracking
Ejection fraction following an event often returns to this in many patients
Normal
These types of stents are used in the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA)
Self expanding
Impedance is very high. This may have occurred.
Who purfed?
Echo was born in this year
1953- finally Echo was born. Inge Elder, a physician and C. Hellmuth Hertz, an engineer, became the first to perform an echocardiogram
Deformation resulting from applied force
Strain
This is the elasticity of the cardiac muscle
These found in blood are believed to have a large roll in the cause of Takotsubo
Catecholamines
The last form of treatment for PDV
Amputation
