Across
  1. 2. valve, the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle,
  2. 3. irregular heart rhythm, which can be too fast (tachycardia), too slow (bradycardia), or irregular,
  3. 7. a bulge or weakness in the wall of a blood vessel that can rupture and cause internal bleeding,
  4. 13. arrest, sudden loss of heart function, leading to loss of consciousness and potentially death if not treated immediately,
  5. 15. the muscular wall that divides the left and right sides of the heart,
  6. 16. difficulty breathing, often associated with heart or lung conditions,
  7. 19. infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, leading to tissue damage or death,
  8. 20. high blood pressure, a condition in which the force of blood against the artery walls is too high,
  9. 22. excessive bleeding, either internally or externally, due to a ruptured blood vessel,
  10. 24. is, an enlargement of the heart, often due to underlying health conditions such as heart failure or hypertension,
  11. 26. fibrillation, a chaotic, irregular heartbeat originating in the ventricles, which can be fatal if not treated promptly,
  12. 27. narrowing of a blood vessel or heart valve, which can restrict blood flow,
  13. 29. the formation of a blood clot within a blood vessel,
  14. 30. the phase of the cardiac cycle when the heart contracts and pumps blood out,
Down
  1. 1. valve prolapse, a condition in which the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle doesn't close properly, causing blood to leak backward,
  2. 4. is, an abnormally rapid heart rate, usually defined as over 100 beats per minute,
  3. 5. the main artery that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body,
  4. 6. bluish discoloration of the skin and mucous membranes due to low oxygen levels in the blood,
  5. 8. edema, accumulation of fluid in the lungs, often caused by heart failure,
  6. 9. rhythm, the normal heartbeat rhythm generated by the sinus node in the right atrium,
  7. 10. the phase of the cardiac cycle when the heart relaxes and fills with blood,
  8. 11. a disease of the heart muscle that can lead to heart failure,
  9. 12. is, an abnormally slow heart rate, usually defined as under 60 beats per minute,
  10. 14. inflammation of the pericardium, the sac-like membrane surrounding the heart,
  11. 17. a disease in which plaque builds up inside arteries, narrowing and hardening them,
  12. 18. reduced blood flow to a part of the body, often leading to tissue damage,
  13. 21. is inflammation of the inner lining of the heart chambers and valves, usually caused by infection,
  14. 23. failure, a condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs,
  15. 25. a small device implanted in the chest to regulate the heart's rhythm,
  16. 28. artery disease is a condition characterized by the buildup of plaque in the coronary arteries, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle,
