Subject : health-sciences
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. What does the LAD supply?






2. in the JVP - What is the c wave?






3. MAP is also known as






4. What is the difference between the fetal and neonatal direction of blood flow in a patent ductus arteriosus






5. What causes the murmur heard in MR to enhance?






6. What does the U wave indicated?






7. What happens in phase 3 of the cardiac ventricular action potential?

33. smaller vegetations - congenitally abnormal or diseased valves - sequela of dental procedures. Insidious onset






34. How are the sarcomeres added in eccentric hypertrophy?






35. PROVe
