Definition
Each of the two upper cavities of the heart (singular: atrium)
The two lower chambers of the heart
A muscle wall that divides the left and right atrium (Atrial
septum), as well as the left and right ventricle (Ventricular
septum)
Prevent the backward flow of blood. flaps that are located

on each end of the ventricles. They act as one-way inlets of
blood on one-way outlets of blood on the other side.
Carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the rest of your

body
Carry low-oxygenated blood from the rest of the body back
to the heart.
Small branches of the arteries, that branch out into
capillaries.
Smallest blood vessels that facilitate substance exchange
with different tissues.
Tiny veins that receive blood from capillaries.
A condition in which the blood vessels have persistently
raised pressure.
The blood flow that brings oxygen to the heart muscle is
severely reduced.
The sudden death of brain cells due to lack of oxygen,
caused by blockage of blood flow or rupture of an artery to
the brain.
An irregular or abnormal heartbeat
Can be either Stenosis (Can’t open properly) or insufficient
(can’t close properly).
Condition in which the heart muscle is unable to pump

enough blood to meet the body's needs.
An excessive localized enlargement of an artery caused by a

weakening of the artery wall
Hardening of the arteries.

Deposition of plaques of fatty material on their inner walls.
Condition in which the heart stops beating.
Narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries.
Whooshing or swishing sounds caused by turbulent blood in

or near your heart.
Brief episode of neurological dysfunction from an
interruption in the blood supply to the brain or the eye.
Condition where blood clots block veins or arteries.

Narrowing of the carotid arteries.
Twisted, enlarged veins.
Graph obtained by measuring electrical impulses from the
heart.
Ultrasound of the heart, used to evaluate fun structure and
function of the heart.
EKG done while exercising to assess how well your heart
tolerates exercise.
Image of the coronary arteries.
Obtain an image of the arterial blood supply using x-rays
with contrast dye.
The removal of plaque in the carotid artery
A tubular support placed temporarily inside a blood vessel,

canal, or duct to aid healing or relieve an obstruction.
A technique useful in many emergencies, in which

someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped.
An artificial device for stimulating the heart muscle and

regulating its contractions.
A device used to continuously monitor and help regulate

potentially fast and life-threatening electrical problems with
the heart.
A special type of catheter with a tiny balloon is inserted

through an artery until it reaches the blockage, where it is
inflated to open up the artery and increase the blood flow.
A procedure that scars the heart, blocking irregular

electrical impulses.
