Across
  1. 2. / This disease is inflammation of the small and medium- sized arteries of the upper and lower extremities.
  2. 4. / Systemic infections may stimulate the overproduction of bacterial toxins, some of which cause vasodilation, leading to septic ---.
  3. 7. / Clinical manifestations include irregular heartbeat, chest pain, shortness of breath, and fainting.
  4. 9. heart failure / 60% of cases are left- sided which causes blood to back up and congest the lungs.
  5. 12. / The most significant early symptom of --- arterial disease is intermittent calf pain that initially subsides with rest but becomes more severe with time and is not relieved by rest.
  6. 15. vein / --- --- thrombosis; inflammation attracts platelets that often aggregate near a venous valve.
  7. 19. / Medications include betablockers, vasodilators, and anticoagulants.
  8. 20. / Less severe --- may benefit from massage and is commonly known as varicose veins.
  9. 21. / --- hypotension is also known commonly as a dizzy spell.
  10. 22. Infarction / Heart attacks are a medical emergency and require immediate intervention.
  11. 24. / Some forms of --- result in adhesion formation between the layers of the pericardial sac, giving the heart a shaggy appearance.
  12. 26. Pectoris / Nitroglycerin tablets may be used to dilate blood vessels.
  13. 27. / --- is the reduction in the quantity of either red blood cells (RBCs) or hemoglobin.
Down
  1. 1. / Manifestations common to all --- include persistent fatigue with shortness of breath during physical activity, loss of appetite and weight loss, night sweats, and bone pain.
  2. 3. / Manifestation of heart disease that follows RF affecting all heart layers.
  3. 5. / Treat the area over the aneurysm as a local contraindication.
  4. 6. / If a client has had recent surgery, avoid the lower extremities (thighs and legs).
  5. 8. / --- is related to venous stasis.
  6. 10. / --- occurs when pathogens, usually bacteria, enter the bloodstream and attach to defects in the endocardium or heart valves.
  7. 11. / Because --- is most often related to other diseases, be sure to read recommendations for specific diseases such as angina pectoris, coronary artery disease, TIA, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease. Also, caution is advised in the anterior throat area because the carotid arteries may contain undiagnosed fibrous plaque.
  8. 13. / The difference between disease and syndrome is whether or not is primary or secondary to another disease.
  9. 14. / For mild cases, type A ---, the person given a medication by injection or as nose spray to stimulate the release of the missing clotting factor.
  10. 16. / Clients --- that is not controlled with diet, regular exercise, or medication should not receive massage due to the likelihood of unmonitored severe complications.
  11. 17. / This occlusion can cut off blood flow to an organ, causing serious injury or death.
  12. 18. / General term for any weakening or change in the myocardium.
  13. 23. Arrest / The sudden and complete cessation of an effective heartbeat.
  14. 25. / Coronary artery/ heart disease, also called --- heart disease, is the narrowing of arteries that reduces blood flow and creates ischemia, often leading to MI.
