Electrical Activity and Conduction
Across
- 1. Specialized fibers conducting impulses through ventricles.
- 4. Graphic recording of electrical activity of the heart.
- 9. Pathway connecting AV node to bundle branches.
- 10. Time between successive R waves.
- 11. ECG deflection representing ventricular repolarization.
- 14. Time from onset of atrial to onset of ventricular depolarization.
- 17. Up-and-down deflections on an ECG.
- 23. Slow depolarization that leads to an action potential in pacemaker cells.
- 27. Ability of heart cells to generate their own rhythm.
- 28. Abnormally slow heart rate (<60 bpm).
- 29. Flat line on ECG between S wave and T wave.
- 33. Impaired conduction between atria and ventricles.
- 34. Final branches of the Purkinje system.
- 35. Time from beginning of QRS complex to end of T wave.
- 36. Flat portion of ECG between waves.
Down
- 2. Primary pacemaker of the heart located in right atrium.
- 3. Ion channel responsible for pacemaker potentials in heart cells.
- 5. Cell in the heart that contracts to pump blood.
- 6. Normal heartbeat rhythm generated by SA node.
- 7. ECG deflection representing atrial depolarization.
- 8. Rapid, life-threatening quivering of the ventricles.
- 12. Rapid electrical change across cardiac cell membrane.
- 13. Secondary pacemaker that delays impulse to ventricles.
- 15. Rapid, irregular beating of the atria.
- 16. Junctions between cardiac cells allowing synchronized contraction.
- 18. Time when cardiac cells cannot be re-excited.
- 19. Measurement from one ECG wave to another including waves.
- 20. Any disturbance in normal heart rhythm.
- 21. ECG complex representing ventricular depolarization.
- 22. System of nodes and fibers coordinating heart contractions.
- 24. Delay at AV node to allow atria to empty before ventricles contract.
- 25. Abnormal pacemaker outside the SA node.
- 26. Abnormal heart rhythm.
- 30. Abnormally fast heart rate (>100 bpm).
- 31. Uncoordinated, rapid heart muscle contractions.
- 32. Heart cell that can initiate its own electrical impulse.
