ANSWER ✓✓✓separtes L & R sides of heart SA node - other
name - ANSWER ✓✓✓pacemaker sinus rhythm - ANSWER
✓✓✓basic rate of impulses generated by SA node (70 beats per
minute) location of sinoatrial node - ANSWER ✓✓✓right atrium
Where does impulse go to after SA node - ANSWER ✓✓✓Spreads
through atrial conduction pathways, resulting in contraction of
both atria AV node - what is it - ANSWER ✓✓✓Atrioventricular
node. Impulse arrives here after SA node sent it through atria AV
node - where is it - ANSWER ✓✓✓Floor of R atrium near septum.
Is the only anatomical connection between atrial and ventricular
portions of conduction system. AV bundle - other name - ANSWER
✓✓✓Bundle of His - other name ECG - what does it do -
ANSWER ✓✓✓Records electrical changes sent by conduction
impulses as picked up by electrodes apoptosis - ANSWER
✓✓✓normal programmed cell death in tissues endogenous -
ANSWER ✓✓✓originating from within the body exogenous -

ANSWER ✓✓✓necrotic tissue infected by bacteria hypoxia -
ANSWER ✓✓✓decreased or insufficient level of oxygen in the

to the specific disease process insidious - ANSWER ✓✓✓Proceeding
in a gradual, subtle way, with only vague or mild signs, but with
,harmful effects. Ex: "the xx effects of stress"; hepatitis subclinical -
ANSWER ✓✓✓pathologic changes occur but no obvious
manifestations exhibited, perhaps because of great reserve capacity
of some organs. Ex: kidney damage may progress to an advanced
stage of renal failure before symptoms are manifested. latent -
ANSWER ✓✓✓silent stage, no clinical signs evident. May be called
incubation period in some infectious diseases. May be communicable
during this period. prodromal - ANSWER ✓✓✓time in early
development of disease; pt know of change in body, but signs are
nonspecific; a stage in infections. Labs tests are negative, difficult to
confirm diagnosis. manifestations - ANSWER ✓✓✓clinical evidence
or effects, signs and symptoms, local or systemic lesion - ANSWER
✓✓✓specific local change in tissue, may be microscopic syndrome
- ANSWER ✓✓✓collection of signs and symptoms, often affecting
more than one organ. Usually occur together in response to a
certain condition. remission - ANSWER ✓✓✓manifestations of the
disease subside exacerbation - ANSWER ✓✓✓manifestations of the
disease increase precipitating factor - ANSWER ✓✓✓condition
that triggers an acute episode. Ex - shoveling snow on a cold day
may trigger an MI complications - ANSWER ✓✓✓new secondary
or additional problems. Ex - following an MI, pt may develop
congestive heart failure, which is a(n) xx. sequelae - ANSWER
✓✓✓potential unwanted outcomes of the primary condition. Ex -
paralysis following recovery from a stroke convalescence - ANSWER

health state. May last for several days or months. prognosis -
ANSWER ✓✓✓probability or likelihood for recovery based on

proportion of the population occurrence - ANSWER ✓✓✓tracked
by recording incidence and prevalence incidence - ANSWER
✓✓✓number of new cases in a specific population within a certain
time period prevalence - ANSWER ✓✓✓number of new and
old/existing cases in a specific population within a certain time
period atrophy - ANSWER ✓✓✓decrease in cell size, resulting in
reduced tissue mass. Causes incl: reduced use of tissue, insufficient
nutrition, decreased neurologic or hormonal stimulation, aging
hyperplasia - ANSWER ✓✓✓increase in number of cells resulting
in an enlarged tissue mass. May be compensatory - to meet
increased demands; or pathologic - when there is a hormonal
imbalance. May increase risk of cancer. hypertrophy - ANSWER
✓✓✓increase in size of cells resulting in enlarged tissue mass. May
be from additional work by tissue (ex- enlarged heart due to
increased work demand; enlarged skel musc due to exercise).

different mature cell type. May be adaptive to provide more
resistant tissue (ex stratified squamous epithelium replaces ciliated
columnar epithelium in respiratory tracts of smokers.) dysplasia -

often with large nuclei, increased rate of mitosis. May be from
chronic irritation infection or may be precancer. anaplasia -

and cell structures and numerous mitotic figures. Characteristic of
cancer, basis for grading aggressiveness of tumor. neoplasia -
