Across
- 1. A condition identified by ECG showing irregular heart rhythms and usually requiring medication.
- 3. A sudden and severe reduction in heart rate or blood pressure, often associated with arrhythmias and requiring immediate intervention.
- 6. A condition caused by coronary artery disease, where the heart is deprived of oxygen, often leading to chest pain.
- 7. A diagnostic method that evaluates the electrical activity of the heart.
- 11. A heart condition where one of the valves in the heart is narrowed, restricting blood flow. It may be detected on ECG.
- 12. The abnormal heart sound that often signifies valve disease, frequently heard through a stethoscope.
- 13. The test that looks for enzymes or proteins that indicate heart muscle damage, often elevated after a heart attack.
Down
- 2. A term for reduced oxygen supply to the heart, which can be detected through ECG changes.
- 4. A congenital defect where the heart's main artery is connected to the wrong chambers, detectable through ECG and imaging.
- 5. The condition where blood pressure is consistently high, often leading to cardiovascular complications.
- 8. A common laboratory test that measures cholesterol levels, often elevated in cardiovascular diseases.
- 9. A common symptom in many heart conditions, where the heart fails to pump blood effectively, causing fluid buildup.
- 10. A condition often seen in newborns with congenital heart disease, causing cyanosis, and detectable through clinical signs and ECG.
