Across
  1. 3. is located in the groove between the trachea and the sternocleidomastoid muscle, medial to and along-side that muscle
  2. 6. pumping phase, AV valves close to prevent regurgitation of blood back up into the atria
  3. 8. Occurs with myocardial infarction or low cardiac output states as a result of decreased perfusion
  4. 9. muscular wall of the heart
  5. 14. is a tough, fibrous, double walled sac that surrounds and protects the heart.
  6. 15. calcification of tricuspid valve impedes forward flow into RV during diastole
  7. 17. swelling, or accumulation of extra fluid, is dependent when caused by heart failure
  8. 18. occurs when the hearts own blood supply cannot keep up with the metabolic demand.
  9. 19. fluid in peritoneal cavity
  10. 20. Turbulent blood flow and collision currents
  11. 21. Occurs with closure of the AV valves and thus signals beginning of systole
  12. 22. chambers of the heart
Down
  1. 1. mitral valve leaflets not only cause with contraction but balloon back up into the left atrium
  2. 2. is a systolic blood pressure of >140mmHg or diastolic >90mmHg
  3. 3. rhythmic movement of blood through the heart
  4. 4. Is the need to assume a more upright position to breathe.
  5. 5. is the opposing pressure the ventricle must generate to open the aortic valve against the higher aortic pressure
  6. 7. palpable vibration
  7. 10. is the thin layer of endothelial tissue that lines the inner surface of the heart chambers and valves
  8. 11. the venous return that build during systole
  9. 12. empty oxygenated blood directly into superior vena cava
  10. 13. Thick walled muscular pumping chamber
  11. 16. shortness of breath
  12. 19. is a thin walled reservoir for holding blood.
