ALREADY GRADED A+
angina pectoris ✔Correct Answer-chest pain that results when the heart does not get enough
oxygen
Asystole ✔Correct Answer-A condition in which the heart has ceased generating electrical
impulses.
cardiac arrest ✔Correct Answer-Normal heartbeat and circulation of blood have completely
stopped.
cardiology ✔Correct Answer-study of the heart
cardiopulmonary resuscitation ✔Correct Answer-actions taken to revive a person by keeping
the person's heart and lungs working
coronary arteries ✔Correct Answer-vessels that supply the myocardium
deep vein thrombosis ✔Correct Answer-the presence of thrombus,blood clot in a vein,
usually a deep vein of the lower limbs.
coronary artery disease ✔Correct Answer-Disease that affects the arteries of the heart
Dehydration ✔Correct Answer-When fluid output exceeds fluid intake causing a decrease in
the amount of fluid in body tissues
Diaphoresis ✔Correct Answer-cool, pale, and moist/sweaty skin; sweating
dysrhythmias ✔Correct Answer-An irregular, or absent heart rhythm
edema ✔Correct Answer-swelling resulting from a buildup of fluid in the tissues
hemorrhage ✔Correct Answer-the loss of a large amount of blood from the vessels, internal
or external.
hypo-perfusion ✔Correct Answer-Inability of the body to adequately circulate blood to the
body's cells to supply them with oxygen and nutrients. Also known as shock.
Hypotension ✔Correct Answer-abnormally low blood pressure
, Hypovolemia ✔Correct Answer-decreased blood volume
myocardial infarction (MI) ✔Correct Answer-heart attack; death of myocardial tissue
(infarction) caused by ischemia (loss of blood flow) as a result of an occlusion (plugging) of a
coronary artery; usually caused by atherosclerosis; symptoms include pain in the chest or upper
body (shoulders, neck, and jaw), shortness of breath, diaphoresis, and nausea
occlusion ✔Correct Answer-Blockage caused by fatty deposits
Palpitations ✔Correct Answer-Irregular or rapid heartbeats they feel as a fluttering sensation
in the chest.
Perfusion ✔Correct Answer-The supply of oxygen to and removal of wastes from the cells and
tissues of the body as a result of the flow of blood through the capillaries.
Valve ✔Correct Answer-a structure that opens and closes to permit the flow of a fluid in only
one direction
ventricular fibrillation ✔Correct Answer-a condition in which the heart's electrical impulses
are disorganized, preventing the heart muscle from contracting normally
Average Blood volume for males ✔Correct Answer-5-6 liters
Average blood volume for females ✔Correct Answer-4-5 liters
Blood volume in pregnancy ✔Correct Answer--total BV increases by 40-45%
Blood ✔Correct Answer-Connective tissue made of plasma, erythrocytes, leukocytes, and
platelets.
Blood's Three Main Functions ✔Correct Answer-regulation,transportation,protection
Plasma ✔Correct Answer-Contains dissolved nutrients and carries certain crucial proteins
such as clotting factors, plasma is also referred to as the liquid part of blood. It is yellow in color.
red blood cells (erythrocytes) ✔Correct Answer-containing hemoglobin and no nucleus,
carries oxygen to the tissues, Gives color to blood
white blood cells (leukocytes) ✔Correct Answer-Fight infection by destroying microorganisms
and producing antibodies to resist infection and protect the body from disease. Produced in the
bone marrow. Main component in purulent material.
