Une radiographie des vaisseaux sanguins ou des cavités du cœur qui montre le parcours d'un liquide spécial, appelé un opacifiant ou colorant, injecté dans la circulation sanguine.
Industry:Medical devices
Necrosis or tissue death, usually due to inadequate or absent blood supply.
Industry:Medical devices
A condition in which a blocked artery prevents blood flow to the heart muscle, causing the tissue to die. Symptoms may include nausea, shortness of breath, and pain in the chest, arm, or neck. Also called myocardial infarction. It can result in cardiac arrest.
Industry:Medical devices
A condition that stops the conduction of electrical impulses through the heart. May be caused by damage to cardiac tissue or by the disease process within the electrical impulse system. Condition may be intermittent or permanent.
: First-Degree Heart Block - Delay in the conduction of an atrial impulse to the ventricle through the AV-node characterized by a prolonged P-R interval on an ECG.
: Second-Degree Block - Intermittent blockage of atrial impulses at the A-V node. Conduction ratios are represented by the number of P-waves versus the number of ventricular responses in an ECG. Mobitz I is a type of second-degree heart block, also known as the Wenckebach phenomenon, in which the time between the atrial and ventricular contractions (P-R interval) becomes progressively longer until a P-wave is not conducted through the A-V node. Mobitz II is a type of second-degree heart block in which the time between the atrial and ventricular contractions is a consistent P-R interval, but an occasional P-wave is not conducted through the A-V node.
: Complete Heart Block - A pathologic condition in which intrinsic conduction is blocked at any level in the A-V junction. Also referred to as third-degree heart block.
Industry:Medical devices
A diagnostic monitor worn by a patient that utilizes a continuous electrocardiogram (ECG) to detect abnormal changes in the heart's rhythm.
Industry:Medical devices
High blood pressure usually ranging from 140/90 mm Hg to 200/110 mm Hg.
Industry:Medical devices
A group of fibers that continue the electrical impulses to the ventricles that trigger contraction.
