What else can I help you with?
When a heart artery is clogged and heart muscle dies the condition is called?
irreversible ischemia
How does chest pain associated with a respiratory disorder differ from chest pain of cardiac origin?
Cardiac pain may go along your left arm. Respiratory pain does not. I think cardiac pain is cosidered much sharper too.
How did your grandfather died?
maternal granddad died of complications of senile dementia and paternal grandad dies of an unknown cardiac disorder.
What is the medical term meaning electrical changes in the heart muscles?
There is no single term but a good sentance would be "cardiac conductance disorder"
What type of disease is hypertension?
Cardiac disease, which means heart disease. Hypertension means high blood pressure.
What happens to excitability in hyperkalemia?
In hyperkalemia, the increased extracellular potassium levels lead to a decrease in the resting membrane potential of cells, making them more excitable. This can result in muscle weakness, cardiac arrhythmias, and potentially cardiac arrest.
How a cardiac disorder cause an effect on the respiratory system?
Chronic high blood pressure combined with heart failure can push fluid into the lungs.
Why would somebody who had a cardiac arrest need the use of depacote?
They wouldn't. Depacote is a mood stabilising drug used for bi-polar disorder
Is inferolateral ischemia curable?
Ischemia of any type is reversible. If ischemia is prolonged, it can turn to injury or infarction (in the case of the heart) and cell death, at which time it is not reversible or curable. There are studies with stem cells ongoing to attempt to regrow cardiac cells in heart attack scars, however, so this may not be a permanent condition forever.
Is heart failure chronic?
chronic heart failure is demonstrated by a cardiac catheterization or nuclear medicine study. During cardiac catheterization, the patient's cardiac function will be measured by cardiac output, ejection fraction and cardiovascular pressures.
What portion of the cardiac cycle decreases with a more rapid heart rate?
Diastole, specifically the duration of ventricular filling, decreases with a more rapid heart rate. This means less time for the ventricles to fill with blood before the next contraction, potentially impacting cardiac output.
Which type of muscle is the heart made of?
cardiac
