difficult or labored breathing.

Front

dyspnea

Back

the large bone forming the heel

Front

calcaneus

Back

the amount of air that is exhaled per minute

Front

minute volume

Back

caused by narrowed heart arteries. When arteries are narrowed, less blood and oxygen reaches the heart muscle. This is also called coronary artery disease and coronary heart disease. This can ultimately lead to heart attack. Chest pain is called angina pectoris

Front

silent myocardial ischemia angina

Back

Chest pain due to coronary artery spasm, a sudden constriction of a coronary artery (one of the vessels that supply the heart muscle with blood rich in oxygen) depriving the heart muscle (myocardium) of blood and oxygen. triggered by emotional stress, medicines, street drugs, cold exposure

Front

variant angina/

Back

a test for breast tumors that uses infrared sensors

Front

mammothermography

Back

the lymphoid tissue in the wall of the small intestine that are involved the development of the immunity to antigens, they help fight off infection

Front

Peyer's patches

Back

well localized pain

Front

somatic pain

Back

a condition in which the blood flow (and thus oxygen) is restricted or reduced in a part of the body. Cardiac ischemia is the name for decreased blood flow and oxygen to the heart muscle.

Front

ischemia

Back

the normal amount of air that can be inhaled or exhaled during normal breathing

Front

tidal volume

Back

receives and interprets olfactory stimuli

Front

temporal lobe

Back

tonsils, Peyer's patches, spleen, thymus gland, lymph nodes, parts of the bone marrow. appendix

Front

lymphatic system

Back

shin bone, the larger of the two bones in your lower leg

Front

tibia

Back

total volume of the lungs when filled with as much air as possible

Front

total lung capacity capacity (TLC)

Back

a condition in which certain muscles are continuously contracted. This contraction causes stiffness or tightness of the muscles and can interfere with normal movement, speech, and gait.

Front

spastcity

Back

Front

inspiratory capacity

Back

cosmetic procedure that improves the size or lifts the breast

Front

mammoplasty

Back

a measure of cardiac function that is completed by placing a stethoscope at the apex (left ventricle) of the heart and counting for one minute. It represents the opening and closing of the valves in the heart. Lub dub are the two sounds heard that make up one heartbeat

Front

the apical pulse rate

Back

Front

chronic pain

Back

ankles, elbow, knees

Back

infection fighting type of white blood cells, very important in the immune system--20-40% of the white blood cell count

Front

refers to a surgical procedure to fix a severe bone fracture, or break. "Open reduction" means surgery is needed to realign the bone fracture into the normal position.

Front

An open reduction internal fixation -- ORIF

Back

visceral pericardium

Back

an x-ray of the soft tissue of the breast used to detect tumors

chronic illness

Back

a toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body

Front

Back

Adjacent areas in the superior, posterior, and lateral parts of the temporal lobes are involved in high-level auditory processing. The temporal lobe is involved in primary auditory perception, such as hearing, and holds the primary auditory cortex.

Front

temporal lobe

Back

provides and open airway and allows food into the proper channels

Front

larynx/voice box

Back

deficiency in the amount of oxygen reaching the tissues.

Front

hypoxia

Back

causes unexpected chest pain, and usually occurs while resting. The most common cause is reduced blood flow to the heart muscle because the coronary arteries are narrowed by fatty buildups (atherosclerosis) which can rupture causing injury to the coronary blood vessel resulting in blood clotting which blocks the flow of blood to the heart muscle. may happen with little activity

Front

unstable angina

Back

the outermost layer of the pericardium, it is a fibrous membrane that encases the heart and and its fluids and anchors the heart to surrounding structures

Front

parietal pericardium

Back

chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. typically described as squeezing, pressure, heaviness, tightness or pain in your chest.

Front

angina

Back

pain felt in part of the body but actually originates in another

Back

chest pain or discomfort that most often occurs with activity or emotional stress, due to poor blood flow through the blood vessels in the heart.
