Across
  1. 2. fibrillation | Irregular and often rapid heartbeat originating in the atria
  2. 3. | Inflammation of the heart muscle, typically caused by a viral infection
  3. 5. pectoris | Chest pain or discomfort due to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle
  4. 9. heart failure | Condition where the heart is unable to pump enough blood, leading to fluid buildup in the lungs and other tissues
  5. 11. artery stenosis | Narrowing of the pulmonary artery, which can restrict blood flow from the heart to the lungs
  6. 13. failure | Inability of the heart to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs
  7. 14. | Low blood pressure, which can lead to inadequate blood flow to organs and tissues
  8. 15. heart disease | Condition caused by reduced blood flow to the heart, typically due to coronary artery disease
Down
  1. 1. fibrillation | Rapid, irregular, and ineffective contractions of the ventricles
  2. 4. shock | Life-threatening condition where the heart fails to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs
  3. 6. infarction | Damage or death of heart muscle due to insufficient blood supply
  4. 7. hypertension | High blood pressure that is consistently above the normal range, potentially leading to organ damage
  5. 8. embolism | Blockage of a pulmonary artery by a blood clot, usually originating from the leg
  6. 10. thromboembolism | Blockage of a pulmonary artery by a blood clot, often originating from a deep vein thrombosis
  7. 12. | Thickening and hardening of the arteries, often caused by the buildup of fatty deposits
