Cardiac
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The heart is contained within closed cavity called the ___________ | Mediastinum |
| Heart rate below 40-60 beats per minute. (Abnormally slow, below 60 beats per min) | Bradycardia |
| Fast heart rate, usually more than 120 beats per minute | treated with pacemaker | Tachycardia |
| Heart rate of 240 to 450 beats per minute | Atrial Flutter |
| Chaotic disorganized stimulation of the ventricles that does not pump the blood | Ventricular Fibrillation |
| Treated with cardiac ablation | Ventricular Fibrillation |
| Chaotic, disorganized stimulation of the atrium that prevents atrial contraction (which helps fill the ventricle with blood) | Atrial fibrillation |
| Uncoordinated muscular activity in the heart muscle, which results in quivering rather than pumping action | Fibrillation |
| reduced blood supply to tissue, which may be the result of obstruction within the blood vessels or external pressure, which acts as a tourniquet | Ischemia |
| Device that produces electrical impulses that stimulates the heart, process is called ___________________ | Pacing the Heart |
| The Sinoatrial (SA) node initiates the cardiac cycle and is sometimes called the heart's ________________ | Pacemaker |
| An artificial pacemaker is implanted in the body to correct cardiac arrythmia caused by _________________________ | disease of the conduction system |
| Cardioplegia solution is used to ________________________ | stop the heart's pumping action |
| During coronary artery bypass surgery, the surgeon occludes the ascending aorta and inserts the indwelling catheter for infusion of ____________________ | cardioplegic solution and venting of air |
| Cardiac catheterization is an ________________ procedure and involves insertion of a cardiac catheter into the heart chambers and large vessels via a peripheral artery or vein. | Interventional radiology |
| Outer layer of the heart | Epicardium |
| Middle layer of the heart | Myocardium |
| Inner layer of the heart | Endocardium |
| The Mitral (bicuspid) valve is located between the ____________ and ______________ | LEFT ATRIUM | LEFT VENTRICLE |
| Tricuspid valve located on the ___________ of the heart between the ventricle and the atrium | right side |
| The aortic valve maintains one-way blood flow from the __________ to the Aorta | Left Ventricle |
| Anatomical position of the heart in the body | Middle of the chest | slightly behind and to the left of the breastbone |
| Which part of the heart is responsible for pumping blood into the ascending aorta? | Left Ventricle |
| The most common incision used for surgical procedures of the heart and great vessels in the Thoracic cavity | Median Sternotomy |
| During Aortic valve replacement a _________________ incision is most commonly made to open the aorta. | Transverse |
| A midline incision from the sternal notch 2-3" below the xiphoid is called a ________________ | Median Sternotomy |
| Orthotopic transplantation involves ___________________________ | replacing one heart with another |
| __________________ demonstrates movement of blood through the valves and can be used to measure ejection fraction and end systolic and end diastolic volumes | Ventricle Angiograph |
| The phase of the cardiac cycle when the ventricles contract s called ________________ | diastole |
| 2 Classifications of aneurisms are ___________ and ________________ | Saccular | Fusiform |
| An electronic cardiac device used in patients who are susceptible to ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia is an ______________________ | Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) |
| During coronary artery bypass surgery, the surgeon occludes the ascending aorta and inserts the indwelling catheter for infusion of __________________________ | Cardioplegic solution and venting of air |
| Removal of the native heart and replacement with a donor heart is indicated for patients with __________________ Cardiac disease. | End Stage |
| __________________ is a procedure to increase blood flow to the heart in patients whom bypass surgery or medical management is not feasible. | Trans Myocardial Revascularization |
| The phase of the cardiac cycle when the ventricles contract is called _________________ | Diastole |
| The ICD may be implanted through thoracotomy or a subxiphoid or median sternotomy incision, although most are inserted _____________ | Transvenously |
| Currette used during cardiac surgery | Cobb Currette |
| The coronary artery is opened with a #11 knife blade (or beaver blade), and the incision is extended with Dietrich or fine _________ coronary scissors | Potts |
| The Rumel tourniquet, commonly used in cardiovascular surgery, is a short length of rubber tubing either commercially prepared or cut from a straight ________ urinary catheter | Robinson |
| Absence of a heartbeat; cardiac standstill _____________ | Bradycardia |
| Lidocaine 1% is commonly used in the treatment of __________ | Atrial Fibrillation |
| Treated with Cardiac Ablation __________________ | Ventricular Fibrillation |
| Treated with defibrillator | Atrial Fibrillation |
| Heart rate over 120 beats per minute _____________ | Ventricular Tachycardia |
| Heart rate 240 to 450 beats per minute _____________ | Atrial Flutter |
| Located on the right side of the heart between the ventricle and the atrium _________ | right ventricle |
| pumps oxygenated blood to the body _____________ | Left ventricle |
| Between the left atrium and left ventricle ______________ | bicuspid (mitral) valve |
| A diseased Mitral valve is replaced to prevent blood from regurgitating here _________________ | Left Atrium |
| Replaced with a prosthetic valve through right atriotomy ___________ | Tricuspid valve |
| Received deoxygenated blood from the body ____________ | Right Atrium |
| Connected to the pulmonary artery by the pulmonary valve ___________ | Right Ventricle |
| Disease may be caused by rheumatic heart disease ____________ | Bicuspid (mitral) valve |
