Down
- 1. is a beat that originates from the ventricles of the heart, occurs early in the cycle, and is followed by a pause before the next cycle.

- 6. A device that includes a small cassette or microchip recorder and records the heart rhythm over a 24-hour period
- 7. Sensors that detect electrical activity.
- 8. a pen-like instrument that records electrical impulses on ECG paper.
- 11. Is regulated by specialized tissues in the heart wall that transmit electrical impulses and cause the heart muscle to contract and relax
