continuous with the inner lining of blood vessels.
Purkinje fibers are located in the endocardium. They participate in the
contraction of the heart muscle.
Stroke Volume (Preload) - CORRECT ANSWER The blood volume ejected
outside the ventricle after each contraction. ~ The volume of the blood returning
to the heart. ~ The force of the myocardium contraction
Ventricular Repolarization - CORRECT ANSWER The T Wave. ~ The first wave
produced after the QRS Complex. Has the following characteristics: The
,deflection produced by the ventricular repolarization. It is slighty asymmetric.
No more than 5 mm in height.
Hematoma - CORRECT ANSWER A localized collection of blood outside the

into two large groups (gram-positive and gram-negative). Gram staining
differentiates bacteria by the chemical and physical properties of their cell walls
by detecting peptidoglycan, which is present in a thick layer in gram-positive
bacteria. The Gram stain is almost always the first step in the identification of a
bacterial organism.
Axillary - CORRECT ANSWER Under the arm (armpit)
Throat culture - CORRECT ANSWER A laboratory diagnostic test to find a

inhibitory effect via the neurotransmitter Acetylcholine which may cause the
following to happen:
*Slows down pacemaker and HR
*Slows the conduction of electricity in AV node
*Decreases the strength of atrial and ventricular contraction.
Infection Control/ Chain of Infection - CORRECT ANSWER This consists of links,
each of which is necessary for the infectious disease to spread. Infection control
is based on the fact that the transmission of infectious diseases will be
prevented or stopped when any level in the chain is broken or interrupted.
