Word Find - Cardiac
Remember you can print this page!  The questions in this word find are not designed to be easy. Some of the questions should challenge you to undertake online research, open a book, unlock information stored in the dark and dusty areas of your brain or inspire you to have a chat with a Colleague, the Cath Lab staff or a cardiologist. To get the most out of the word find, try to explore the information and make links with your current knowledge, rather than just finding the answer that will fill in the gap. For example 'The P wave on an ECG represents the spread of electrical impulses through the atria, this process is known as? Go beyond the question and find out what stage in the cardiac cycle do each of the waves on an ECG represent, why do they appear as a peak or a trough, where do the electrical impulses arise from?
Answer the following questions relating to the anatomy, physiology and pathology of the human heart then find the answers in the word find. 1. The fibrous cap that forms over an atheromatous plaque has an average Houndsfield value of [ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 2. What is also known as 'good cholesterol' ? [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] lipoproteins. 3. What are the names of the two vessels of almost equal diameter that arise from the bifurcation of the left main coronary artery? The left [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] artery and the [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] artery. 4. Coronary [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] refers to the artery from which the posterior descending artery originates. 5.

[ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] ,[ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] , [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] and [ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 9. The P wave on an ECG represents the spread of electrical impulse through the atria, this process is known as [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 10. The J in the 'JR' and 'JL' catheters stands for [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 11. The P-R interval on an ECG represents the time taken for the electrical impulse to travel from the [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] node to the [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. 12. The Mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle and is the value most commonly affected by disease. The [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] and the [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ] muscles are the supporting structures for the two leaflets of the valve. 13. AMI is the acronym for acute [ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ]. This word find is sourced from the Spectrum Newsletter of the Australian Institute Radiography
