The cardiovascular system transports blood to almost all of the body's tissues
2. Heart
A hollow muscular organ that pumps the blood through the circulatory system by rhythmic contraction and dilation
3. Atrioventricular node
The atrioventricular node (AV node) is a part of the electrical control system of the heart that coordinates the top of the heart.
4. Bundle of his
1. The bundle of His is a collection of heart muscle cells specialized for electrical conduction that transmits the electrical impulses from the AV node
5. Cardiac
Relating to the heart.
6. Cusp
A pocket or fold in the wall of the heart or a major blood vessel that fills and distends if the blood flows backward, so forming part of a valve.
7. Diastole
1. The phase of the heartbeat when the heart muscle relaxes and allows the chambers to fill with blood.
8. Endocardium
1. The thin, smooth membrane that lines the inside of the chambers of the heart and forms the surface of the valves.
9. Myocardium
1. The muscular tissue of the heart.
10. Pulmonary Semilunar
a semilunar valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery; prevents blood from flowing from the artery back into the heart
11. Septum
1. A partition separating two chambers, such as that between the nostrils or the chambers of the heart.
12. Sinoatrial node
1. A small body of specialized muscle tissue in the wall of the right atrium of the heart that acts as a pacemaker by producing a contractile signal at regular intervals.
13. Subclavian
1. Relating to or denoting an artery or vein that serves the neck and arm on the left or right side of the body.
14. Systole
1. The phase of the heartbeat when the heart muscle contracts and pumps blood from the chambers into the arteries.
15. Valve
A flap for controlling the passage of fluid through a pipe or duct, especially an automatic device allowing movement in one direction only.
16. Aortic Semilunar
The semilunar valve separating the aorta from the left ventricle that prevents blood from flowing

National Health Priorities Cardiovascular disease What is it? Cardiovascular disease includes all diseases and conditions of the heart and blood vessels. It is caused mainly by damage to the blood supply to the heart, brain and legs. The four main contributors to the cardiovascular disease burden in Australia are: Coronary heart disease, stroke, heart failure and peripheral vascular disease. The most common is coronary heart disease, which affected more than 580,000 Australians in 2012…

Cardiovascular: Project and Workout Log Workout Log As you learned in the Getting Started lessons, each topic in the HOPE course includes a workout log. As you work through the Cardiovascular lessons and activities, you will need to conduct and document six hours (or 360 minutes) of physical activity on your Cardiovascular Workout Log. A variety of physical activity can be defined as a minimum of three different activities. You will submit your completed workout log when you reach the final lesson…
Running head: CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE | 1 | An Article Critique of "Clinical Psychology and Cardiovascular Disease: An Up-to-Date Clinical Practice Review for Assessment and Treatment of Anxiety and Depression” CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE 2 Dying from a broken heart—is it just an overused melodramatic aphorism, or could there be some medical truth in the old adage? Most, if not all, doctors and nurses will tell you that such a thing…
involve either complete rest or activity of lower intensity. * Interval training can be described as short periods of work followed by rest. The main aim is to work on improving speed and cardiovascular fitness and speed. Examples? * Interval training can refer to organization of any cardiovascular workout (e.g. cycling, running, rowing, etc.), and is prominent in many sports' training. It is a technique particularly employed by runners. Types? * There are two types of interval training:…
the body’s ability to function efficiently in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist hypo-kinetic disease (sedentary lifestyle), and to meet emergency situations. Some of the, hypo-kinetic disease (sedentary lifestyle): • Cardiovascular disease • Some forms of cancer • Back problems, Hypo-kinetic conditions are the cause of 40% of back problems in the United States alone. • Obesity • Type 2 diabetes • Osteoporosis • Mental health Two types of…
