- normal heartbeat
- measures the electrical impulses of the heart creating a visual of its rhythm
- any abnormality in the rate, rhythm, or electrical impulses of the heart
- slow heartbeat
- "quivering" of the heart muscle
- fast heartbeat
- visual of atrial contraction
- muscle tissue of the heart
- sac that surrounds the heart
- inflammation of the heart muscle
- dysfunctional heartbeat
Down
- pump failure
- visual of ventricle contraction
- swishing sound heard upon auscultation
- outer surface of the heart
- contraction of the muscles, blood is pushed out
- no contraction of heart
- cardiomyopathy characterized by a thin flabby heart muscle
- cardiomyopathy characterized by thickened heart muscle with small chambers
- ineffective volume of blood circulating
- membrane lining the inside of the heart
- relaxation the the muscle, chambers fill
- visual of ventricle relaxation
