NURA 2500 CARDIO TEST QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS What are the symptoms of an AV block? - Answer--fainting/syncope -heart failure -cardiac arrest and death -hypotension This is the mildest form of the heart blocks and is rarely symptomatic. There are very few times this rhythm will receive treatment. - Answer-first degree heart block In first degree heart block the electrical signals from the atria to the ventricles are - Answer-delayed, causing long PR intervals In a first degree heart ...

2 types of cardiac cells - Electrical -specialized cells which conduct electrical impulses -these cells start and transmit electrical activity in the heart Mechanical -cells which make up bulk musculature in the heart -these cells contract in response to stimuli from the electrical cells 2 types of cardiac cells - Electrical -specialized cells which conduct electrical impulses -these cells start and transmit electrical activity in the heart Mechanical -cells which make up bulk musculat...

why we can have premature beats that arise from the atrium, or pre mature beasts that arise form ventricles, v fib from - ANS excitability ability to receive and respond to stimuli - ANS excitability The ability of the heart to generate and conduct electrical impulses on its own. - ANS automaticity transmit electrical impulse across cell membranes cell to cell - ANS conductivity The strength of contraction of the heart at any given end-diastoli...
