the largest artery in the human
body, which carries oxygenated
Aorta
blood away from the heart
Apex the lower, pointed end of the heart
electrical or magnetic interference that alters the EKG
tracing.
Artifact
most common reason for artifacts are:
-limb movement
-substance on skin
specialized tissue that is able to regulate the impulses
Atrioventricular (AV) node
between atria and ventricles
a small muscular pouch-like
structure that fills the ventricles
Atrium
with blood

unipolar leads created by combining two of the three
limb leads to create a positive electrode. they are
Augmented Leads recorded as augmented voltage to the right arm
(aVR), augmented voltage to the left arm (aVL),
augmented voltage to the left leg or foot (aVF),
the ability of the cardiac cells to spontaneously
Automaticity
generate electrical activity
component of the heart's electrical conduction
Bachmann's Bundle system responsible for ensuring the near simultaneous
depolarization of both atria
an electrically neutral area on the EKG, also referred
Baseline to as the isoelectric line or TP segment; establishing a
pattern for comparison across time
Bradycardia slow heart rate
part of the conduction system responsible for
Bundle Branch transmitting electrical impulses from the AV node to
the Purkinje fibers to trigger ventricular depolarization
a part of the conduction system responsible for
Bundle of His receiving electrical impulses from the AV node and
transmitting the impulses to the bundle branches
Contract decrease in length

complex process involving the opening of sodium
and potassium channels on the surface of cardiac
Depolarization
cells resulting in the loss of polarity. depolarization of
muscle tissue generally causes the muscle to contract
originating in an area of the heart other than the
