Down 1. Shortened in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. 3. On EKG, this results in wide terminal S waves in leads I and V6 4. Results in prominent v waves on a jugular venous pressure tracing 5. Composed of long chains of sarcomeres 6. Cardiac output per unit body surface area 7. Symptom of right heart failure 8. A tumor of this organ can result in hypertension 10. Markedly increased in aortic stenosis 12. Synonym for rales 14. Imaging study useful for diagnosis of congenital heart disease and aortic dissection 15. Indication of elevated central venous pressure 17. Limits post-infarct ventricular remodeling 19. Can result in sudden death during vigorous exercise 21. Cardiovascular (abv) 23. Can be caused by mitral valve prolapse 25. This law demonstrates why left heart failure results in pulmonary congestion 29. This valvular condition is almost always congenital 30. Believed to play a protective role against 43 across 32. First thing one should determine when examining an EKG 34. Common mechanism for PSVT 35. Can be increased by frequent aerobic exercise 36. Common cardiovascular symptom 40. Results from rapid changes in cell membrane ion permeability 42. Rupture of this may result in back pain and severe hypotension (abv) 43. Caused by a mismatch in oxygen supply and demand 45. Systemic disease that can cause a pseudoinfarct on EKG 47. Possible side effect of spironolactone 51. Node most commonly responsible for tachycardia 52. Derived from extracts of a foxglove plant 54. May be indicated in symptomatic sick sinus syndrome 56. Term for rhythm caused by addition of an S3 and/or S4 57. Description of pulse pressure commonly seen in tamponade 58. Interacts with actin to acheive muscle contraction 59. Inhibits coagulation factors Va and VIIIa 62. Tumor which may result in periodic palpatations and diaphoresis (abv) 64. Requirement for the development of a paradoxical embolus 68. The cause of variant angina 70. Molecule necessary for excitation-contraction coupling 71. Newly developed non-invasive technique useful for visualization of the cornoary arteries 74. Used to diagnosis atrial thrombi |
Across 2. Organ of interest in cardiology 7. Type of rhythm which hopefully develops following complete heart block 9. Location of the crista terminalis (abv) 11. Vessel which usually supplies the AV node 13. Class III antiarrhythmic 16. Type of heart disease almost always associated with mitral stenosis 18. Requires immediate electrocardioversion 20. Inhibition of this enzyme can treat hypertension> 22. Caused by 43 across (abv) 23. Term to describe subtypes of second degree AV block 24. Symptoms include fever, chorea, and erythema marginatum (abv) 26. Increased by hypoxia 27. Increased by sympathetic discharge 28. Should be checked in younger patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation (abv) 31. Aspirin 32. Secreted by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney 33. Prolongation of this implies a bundle branch block or ventricular rhythm 35. This bundle connects the AV node to the Purkinje fibers 37. Equal to central venous pressure (abv) 38. Results in a systolic crescendo-decrescendo murmur 39. Infarction of this vessel may lead to Q-waves in the anteroseptal EKG leads 41. Present when the mean QRS axis is between +90 and +180 degrees 43. The major underlying cause of myocardial infarction 44. A thrombolytic agent 46. Serum levels will peak 4-5 days after an infarct 48. Acted on by 32 across 49. Type of afterdepolarization responsible for 75 across 50. Normally 5-15 mm Hg 51. S3 is an example of a heart ______ 53. Specific name for an accessory tract connecting the SA node directly to the right ventricle 54. Radiographic view of the heart which can diagnose cardiomegaly 55. When chronic, results in widened pulse pressure 56. Increases in response to dopamine 60. Preferred vessel to use in a coronary artery bypass graft 61. Second messenger needed for beta adrenergic stimulation 63. Largest artery in the body 65. Branches into the circumflex and left anterior descending arteries 66. Short acting beta blocker 67. Contains the right branch of the AV bundle 68. Period during which ventricular contraction occurs 69. Median survival in years of people with 38 across who complain of 43 down 71. Risk factors for this include family history, coronary artery disease, and cocaine abuse 72. Stroke volume divided by body surface area 73. Acute pericarditis may result in uniform elevation or depression of this on EKG 75. Prolongation of the QT interval predisposes one to this 76. Most common location for intracardiac thrombus formation (abv) 77. Runs in the coronary groove |
