Cardiovascular System
Across
- 1. receiving chambers of the heart
- 2. a sound in addition to normal heart sounds, arising from blood flowing through heart
- 5. increases force of cardiac muscle contraction
- 8. cardiac muscle is blank, short, fat, branched and interconnected
- 9. localized and temporary deficiency of blood supply due to obstruction to circulation
- 12. out in the ventricular myocardium are stimulated resulting in ventricular systole
- 14. medical treatment for varcicose veins
- 17. inflammation of heart valve
- 18. relaxation of heart muscle
- 19. inflammation of lining membranes of heart
- 22. prevents blood clot formation
- 23. relax smootj muscles in wall of arteries
- 25. small cardiac, anterior cardiac and great cardiac
- 27. stainless steel tube placed within blood vessels or duct to widen lumen
- 29. where the electrical impulses begin
Down
- 1. inflammation of a vessel
- 3. cardiac muscle layer forming the bulk of the heart
- 4. hormones that increase heart rate
- 6. Ovale connects the 2 atria
- 7. hormones that increase heart rate
- 10. cardiac cell contractile force due to factors other than EDV
- 11. inflammation of muscle layer of heart wall
- 13. back pressure exerted by blood in the large arteries leaving heart
- 15. endothelial layer of the inner myocardial surface
- 16. felt at the wrist or throat is the surge of blood caused by the heart contraction
- 20. area of tissue within organ or part that undergoes necrosis following loss of its blood supply
- 21. where the electrical impulses begin
- 24. x-ray record of vessel taken during angiography
- 26. blood leaving capilliaries first enters small blank
- 28. amount ventricles are stretched by contained blood
