Atrial Tachycardia | rapid heart rate more than or equal to 150 beats per minute |
Bradycardia | a heart rate less than 60 bpm, with normal electrocardiogram (ECG) |
Diastolic Blood Pressure | the pressure in arteries when the heart rests, or between beats |
Hypertension | blood pressure measurements of 140/90 mm Hg or higher |
Metabolic Equivalents (METs) | a measurement of the ability to perform common daily tasks |
Systolic Blood Pressure | the pressure in arteries during ventricular contraction, or when the heart beats |
Tachyarrhthmia | a fast, irregular heart rate, usually over 150 bpm |
Tachycardia | a heart rate in excess of 100 bpm with normal ECG |
Blood Dyscrasia | an abnormal condition where components of the blood contain an overabundance of certain cells, immature cells, or inadequate quantities of cellular elements, such as in leukemia or hemophila |
Crepitation | a clicking or popping sound as the jaw is opened |
Etiology | the cause of any condition or disease |
Hyperventilation | excessive intake of oxygen and exhalation of carbon dioxide; fast breathing often precipitated by anxiety |

Syncope | fainting; temporary loss of consciousness due to cerebral ischma |
Tetany | sharp flexion of the wrist and fingers, muscle twitches caused by a decrease in the concentration of extracellular joint |
