Across
- 3. P waves are sawtooth in appearance
- 5. SA node fails to send out an impulse for a period of time
- 7. represents the absence of electrical activity in the cardiac tissue
- 10. visible record of the heart's electrical activity on a moving strip of paper
- 14. ST segment elevation and T wave inversion
- 16. atrial pacemaker other than the SA node discharges an electrical impulse
- 17. fires electrical impulses at a rate of 60-100 times per minute
- 18. complexes are normal but the heart rate is above 100 bests per minute
- 20. Consecutive PVC's with a heart rate of between 150 to 200 beats per minute
Down
- 1. complexes are normal but the rate increases and decreases with respiration
- 2. complexes are normal but the heart rate is below 60 beats per minute
- 4. Large, broad, notched or slurred R waves in leads 1 AVL, V5 and/or V6
- 6. diffuse concave ST segment elevation with S-T depression
- 8. numerous ventricular ectopic foci firing simultaneously, absence of a heart rhythm
- 9. atrial depolarization and relates to the atrial systole
- 11. ventricular depolarization and ventricular contract
- 12. rate is regular and the heart rate is between 60-100 beats per minute
- 13. SA node fails to send a out a impulse for a period of time
- 15. impulse spreads through the atria via the internodal pathways to the ____________.
- 16. Originates from an ectopic foci in the ventricle and occurs early in the cycle
- 18. ventricular repolarization
- 19. there is no well defined P wave on the EKG
