PT lack of blood flow
Patent
Open or exposed
Precordial
PT anterior left chest
Systemic circulation
Heart → capillaries → heart
Flutter
Rapid and regular
Fibrillation
Rapid and random, inefficient (> or equal to
350 bpm)
Cardiac tamponade
Compression of the heart due to an increase
of fluid in the pericardium
Coarctation of the aorta
Narrowing of the aorta, causing
hypertension, ventricular strain, and
ischemia
CHF
Congestive heart failure; ineffenciency of
cardiac circulation causing edema and
pulmonary congestion
CAD
Coronary artery disease; narrowing of
coronary arteries causing a decrease of blood
flow or ischemia to the myocardium
Rayaud’s Disease
Cyanosis of fingers/ toes due to vascular
constriction
Thrombus
Blood clot
RHD
Rheumatic heart disease; valvular disease
resulting from rheumatic fever
Aneurysm
Widening of arterial wall due to
atherosclerosis and hypertension or
congenital weakness

DVT
Large vein like lower leg, can lead to
pulmonary embolism
Increase in cardiac enzymes
Myocardial infarction
Troponin
Protein released when myocardial cells die
CRP
Level of inflammation
Acid-base or pH imbalance
Leads to arrhythmias, muscle damage, or
death
Angi/o
Vessel
Doppler sonography
DS; measures velocity of blood flow
Echocardiography
Structure and function of heart at rest and
exercise
Vascular sonography
Assess blood flow
Holter monitoring
24 hour BP for detecting cardiac arrhythmias
Cardioversion (defibrillation)
Use of electricity to stop arrhythmias
Extra corporeal circulation
Circulation through external heart and lung
machine while heart is being repaired
Stent
Keeps vessel patent
P wave
Atria depolarizes
QRS
Atria repolarizes; ventricle depolarizes
T
Ventricle repolarizes
P-Q space
AV node delay
ST space
Complete ventricle depolarization
TP space
Complete ventricle repolarization
Unstable angina: only during certain times
Little piece gets stuck
Myocardial infarction: little piece clogs, heart attack
Aneurysm is opposite of a myocardial infarction
Apex of heart is point of heart (bottom)
