Through the Heart
It's where the deoxygenated blood enters the heart.
What is the Right Atrium?
Caused by a diet high in fat, sugar, and sodium.
What is Coronary Artery Disease?
It's the mean pressure required for tissue perfusion.
What is 65?
It's called the Pacemaker of the heart.
What is the SA node?
It's when the heart does not pump correctly and effciently.
What is Heart Failure?
This chamber of the heart pumps blood to the aorta.
What is the Left Ventricle?
A pain that is considered a classic sign of CAD.
What is Angina?
It is defined as intermittent or sustained elevation of systolic or diastolic blood pressure.
What is hypertension?
He completes atrial contraction before ventricular contraction begins.
What is the Bundle of HIS?
The most common cause of heart failure.
What is systemic hypertension?
The valves between the chambers are responsible for this type of blood flow through the heart. Also could be a band name of sorts.
What is One Direction Flow?
This kind of angina increases in frequency, duration, is easily induced, and can lead to an MI if not addressed.
What is Unstable Angina?
It is fundamental cause of hypertension not associated with diet.
What is disruption of the RAAS?
It's the ability of heart cells to spontaneously depolarize and generate an action potential, if the SA node fails.
What is automaticity?
A complication of heart failure the result of Na and H2O entering the lungs. (Hint: example of cardiac condition causing a pulmonary problem)
What is Pulmonary Edema?
It's Stroke Volume x Heart Rate.
What is Cardiac Output?
it is the way we diagnose if a patient is having a myocardial infarction.
What is ECG, Cardiac enzymes, and symptoms?
Heart failure, stroke, chronic kidney failure, retinopathy.
What are consequence of untreated hypertension?
It records electrical activity of the heart.
What is an electrocardiogram or ECG?
This causes blood to back up into pulmonary area, exhibited by shortness of breath, crackles, cyanosis, and fatigue.
What is Left-sided Heart Failure?
It's the four major determinants of myocardial oxygen demand.
What are heart rate, contractility, preload, and afterload?
This procedure shows the coronary arteries and any blockages.
What is Cardiac Catheterization?
It causes changes in the diameter of an artery requiring more pressure to move blood contributing to hypertension.
What is atherosclerosis?
It's generated by cardiac output, coordinated by electrical and mechanical factors, stimulated by the SA node.
What is Central Perfusion?
This causes blood to back up venous circulation exhibited by edema in extremities, jugular distension, and engorged liver and spleen.
What is Right-sided Heart Failure?
