Across
  1. 2. period between ventricular contractions when ventricles are repolarizing
  2. 3. arteries that carry deoxygenated blood
  3. 5. product of heart rate and stroke volume, the amount of blood pumped from L or R ventricle per min
  4. 7. pulse point medial to the biceps tendon
  5. 11. veins that carry oxygenated blood
  6. 12. the contraction of R and L atria pushing blood into ventricles
  7. 13. forces that impede blood flow out of heart, primarily the peripheral vasculature
  8. 14. volume of blood ejected by each contraction of the L ventricle
  9. 15. pulse point at the wrist that is lateral to the flexor carpi radialis tendon
  10. 16. an AV valve between R atria and R ventricle
Down
  1. 1. pulse point near the center of the long axis of the foot, between 1st/2nd metatarsals
  2. 4. the hormone released from the vagus nerve to slow heart rate through influence on the SA node
  3. 6. pulse point in the medial aspect of the SCM
  4. 8. the valve between R ventricle and the lungs
  5. 9. the reflexes by which blood pressure is maintained
  6. 10. amount of blood that returns to the R atrium per min
