169
Q

electrical heart stimulation located outside the sinoatrial node that results in lost contraction synchronization

A

Ectopic Pacemakers

170
Q

meaning out of place

171
Q

a condition in which heart muscle cells in different areas contract independently of one another and all coordinated pumping in the ventricles is lost

A

Ventricular Fibrillation

172
Q

a condition that occurs when the pumping ability of the heart decreases, usually due to disease of the heart muscle or a valve malfunction that restricts forward flow of blood through a valve or allows a backward flow
