Question
Answer
Normal resting values:   HR = 75 beats/min & SV = 70 ml/beat  
🗑
cardiac reserve means:   diff bet resting and maximal CO  
🗑
electrocardiogram   ECG formerly EKG is a recording of electrical changes that accompany the cardiac cycle.  
🗑
ECG reveals action of heart thru:   3 distinguishable waves called: deflection waves  
🗑
the 3 waves are:   P wave, QRS wave and T wave  
🗑
P wave is a sm upward wave:   represents movement from SA node thru atria  
🗑
QRS wave-downward deflection followed by::   upward triangular wave that ends as a downward wave. reps: ventricular depolarization. preceeds V contraction  
🗑
T wave - dome shaped; V repolarization. the dicrotic notch:   is a brief rise in pressure at end of T wave caused by closing of SL valves  
🗑
2 intervals are:   P-R interval AND Q-T interval  
🗑
P-R interval measures:   time from start of atrial excitation to start of V excitation  
🗑
Q-T interval   start of V depolarization thru contraction and repolarizationc  
🗑
pericarditis   inflammation of pericardiuma  
🗑
Valve Stenosis   hardening of a valve, aften the Mitral valve  
🗑
angina Pectoralis   blockage of coronary arterial circulation  
🗑
Mycardial infraction   heart attack; coronary  
🗑
arrhythmias   loss of coordination of A or V contractions  
🗑
fibrillation   rapid & irregular out of phase contractions  
🗑
murmurs   sloppy valves allowing backwash into upper chambers  
🗑
hypo calcemia   low or reduced levels of ionic calcium. prob W/contractions  
🗑
tachycardia   abnormally fast over 100 BPM  
🗑
bradycardia   slow heart rate, 60 BPM or less  
🗑
congestive H failure   inadequate B circulation due to poor pumping action; tissur needs are not met  
🗑
endocarditis   inflammation of endocardium usually from bacterial or fungal infections  
🗑
cardiac arrest   complete stop of heartbeat  
🗑
mitral valve prolapse   genetic valve disorder; incompetant flaps; may weaken heart  
🗑
foramen ovale & dustus arteriosus   incomplete closure (remain open after birth)  
🗑
tetraology of fallot:   pulmonary stenosis; patent ductus arteriosus, and enlarged R V and ventricular septal defectde  
🗑
transposition of G vessels:   aorta and pulmonary are reversed  
🗑
AV septal defect   shunt bet L & R V creates push into pulmonary instead of systemic  
🗑
