Across
  1. 1. occurs when supply of oxygen to the cardiac muscle is inadequate to meet the needs of the myocardium
  2. 3. inability of the heart to pump normally, most common form of heart failure
  3. 6. common cause of diastolic and systolic heart failure
  4. 7. common cause of heart failure and SOBOE
  5. 10. reduced cardiac remodelling, antiarrhythmia, anti-ischaemic action, improves left ventricular ejection fraction
  6. 12. of MI depends on location, size, extent of damage,effect on cardiac output
  7. 13. inability of the heart to fill at normal filling pressures, despite normal ventricular function
  8. 17. conduction defects, seen on ECG
  9. 19. coronary artery that supplies the heart becomes occluded, relieved by rest, precipitated by activity
Down
  1. 1. heart attack, death of heart muscle due to inadequate oxygen
  2. 2. narrowing or blockage of the arteries and vessels that provide oxygen and nutrients to the heart
  3. 4. leading cause of death in Australia
  4. 5. either systolic or diastolic dysfunction of the ventricles
  5. 8. relieves congestive symptoms and peripheral oedema
  6. 9. grading of cardiac function, symptom classification
  7. 11. originate in SA node-AV node-R/L bundle branches-purkinje fibres
  8. 14. an accumulation of fatty materials on the inner linings of arteries, restricting blood flow to the heart
  9. 15. little or no precipitating factors
  10. 16. most commonly used assessment in heart failure
  11. 18. prevents further reconditioning
