What else can I help you with?
The cessation of heart activity is called?
It is known as cardiac arrest, and it refers to the ceasing of all cardiovascular activity, in which you are almost certainly going to die within the next few minutes.
Does the electrical activity of the heart precede mechanical activity?
Yes. It is the electrical activity that stimulates the mechanical activity.
Why is defibrillation not effective when there is a total absence of venticular electrical activity in the heart?
When there is no electrical activity in the heart (asystole), the AED won't start the heart as drugs are required to start the heart. The AED will only re-set the heart from abnormal electrical activity (such as V-Tach or V-Fib).
What is the medical term meaning procedure to assess the electrical activity of a patient's heart over a 24-hour period of normal activity?
The 24 ambulatory monitoring of the heart is called Holter monitoring
Which represents heart activity that is within acceptable limits?
sinus

What is cardioplegia?
Cardioplegia is the intentional and temporary cessation of cardiac activity. cardio meaning the heart and plegia meaning paralysis therefore" cardiac paralysis"
Medical determination of death as the cessation of brain activity?
COMA
What is the meaning of smoking cessation?
It means the stopping of something. To discontinue some activity or action.
When you sneeze do you die for one second?
No. When you sneeze, the intrathoracic pressure in your body momentarily increases. This will decrease the blood flow back to the heart. The heart compensates for this by changing its regular heart beat momentarily to adjust. However, the electrical activity of the heart does not stop during the sneeze.
What organ death occurs when there is an absence of heartbeat with no chance of resurrection?
If there is an absence of a heartbeat with no chance of resurrection, it typically results in brain death. This means that the brain has permanently stopped functioning and cannot be revived, leading to the irreversible cessation of all brain activity.
Is electrical activity of the heart distal to proximal?
No, electrical activity in the heart moves from proximal to distal.
What is the name for the specific part of the heart which sets the rate at which the heart will beat?
The pacemaker of the heart is known as the sinoatrial (SA) node. It sets the rate at which the heart will beat without any autonomic stimulation, that is, no sympathetic or parasympathetic activity. Increases in sympathetic activity will increase the heart rate while increases in parasympathetic activity decrease heart rate. The pacemaker of the heart is known as the sinoatrial (SA) node. It sets the rate at which the heart will beat without any autonomic stimulation, that is, no sympathetic or parasympathetic activity.

What does an electrocardiogram record about the heart's electrical activity?
An electrocardiogram (ECG) records the heart's electrical activity, showing the heart's rhythm and any abnormalities in the heart's electrical system.
What is the antonym for cessation?
Continuation is an antonym of cessation.
Does the electrical activity of the heart precede mechanical activity?
Yes. It is the electrical activity that stimulates the mechanical activity.
What is a neurogenic heart?
A heart who's activity is controlled by nerves.
