digitalis - Correct Answer-a pharmacologic agent used to treat congestive heart failure,
atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and paroxysmal tachycardia of the atria
ischemia - Correct Answer-deficiency of blood to a body part due to functional

p wave - Correct Answer-a wave on ekg that represents contraction of atria
t wave - Correct Answer-represents repolarization of the ventricles
qrs complex - Correct Answer-reflects activity that produces ventricular contraction
ectopic foci - Correct Answer-a displaced central point of origin for a cardiac
dysrhythmia
supraventricular foci - Correct Answer-central points of origin of dysthymias, which are
located above the level of the ventricles in the atria
ventricular foci - Correct Answer-a displaced point of origin for a dysthymia that is in the
