Question
Answer
show Packemaker cells  
🗑
show Automaticity  
🗑
Also called irritability referes to the ability of cardiac muscle cells to respond to an outside stimulus   show
🗑
show Conductivity  
🗑
The ability of myocardial cells to shorten in response to an impulse which results in contraction   show
🗑
show Current  
🗑
The measurement of potential energy is   show
🗑
show Electrolytes  
🗑
Five phase cycle that reflects the difference in the concentration of these charged particles across the cell membrane at any given time   show
🗑
When the inside of a cell is more negative then the outside   show
🗑
The voltage (difference in electrical charges) across the cell membrane   show
🗑
show Permeable  
🗑
show Depolarization  
🗑
show Repolarazition  
🗑
Phases 1,2,3 are referred to as   show
🗑
show Electrical diastole  
🗑
show Phase 0  
🗑
During this phase the NA+ channels partially close, slowing the flow of NA+ into the cell. At the same time CL- enters and K+ leaves. Resulting in a decrease in the # of positive electrical charges within the cell   show
🗑
The plateau phase. During this phase the CA++ slowley enters the cell as K+ continues to leave the cell slowley. It allows cardiac muscle to sustain an increased period of contraction   show
🗑
show Phase 3  
🗑
show Phase 4  
🗑
show Absolute refractory period aka Effective refractory period  
🗑
show Relative refractory period aka Vulnerable period  
🗑
show Supernomral period  
🗑
The soecialized electrical cells in the heart are arranged in a system of pathways called   show
🗑
When the AV junction is bypassed by an abnormal pathway the route is called   show
🗑
show II, III, aVF  
🗑
show V1 and V2  
🗑
show V3 and V4  
🗑
show I, aVL, V5, and V6  
🗑
It represents the spread of the impulse through the AV node, bundle of His, right and left bundle brnaches and the Purkinje fibers. It normally shortens as heart rate increases   show
🗑
Normal rate for PR interval   show
🗑
show QT Interval  
🗑
show under .38 secs  
🗑
show PR segment  
🗑
It represents the early part of repolarazition of the right and left ventricels   show
🗑
show .5 to +2mm  
🗑
Represents atrial depolarazition   show
🗑
Duration of a P wave   show
🗑
show QRS Complex  
🗑
Duration of a QRS complex   show
🗑
Represents ventricluar repolarazition   show
🗑
The primary pacemaker   show
🗑
show .20 secs  
🗑
show Right and left bundle branches  
🗑
On the ECG the time necessary fot the spread of an electrical impulse through the AV nodes, bundle of His, right and left bundle branches and the purkinje fibers is represented by the   show
🗑
The portion of the ECG tracing used to determine the degree of ST segment displacement   show
🗑
show AV Node  
🗑

🗑
show Acute injury pattern  
🗑
show Segment  
🗑
show Reentry  
🗑
show Myocardial cells  
🗑
show Artifact  
🗑
show Interval  
🗑
The relative refractory period is also called   show
🗑
An ECG machine is a sophisticated ?   show
🗑
show Pericarditis  
🗑
An important electrolye that affects cardiac function   show
🗑
show Membrane potential  
🗑
The amplitude of a waveform is measured in   show
🗑
The ability of cardiac muscle cells to respond to an outside stimulus   show
🗑
show Augmented  
🗑
In leads I and II the right arm is   show
