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