6. Blood Vessels

7. Common Tests Electrocardiography: record the electrical activity (EKG)
Radiography: x rays
Angiography: radiographic study of the blood vessels following an injection of contrasting dye material

8. Common Procedures Angioplasty: surgical repair of blood vessel
Defibrillation: use of electrical shock to restore the normal
Transfusion: introduction of new blood or blood components into the blood stream

10. Activities Outline the blood flow through the heart
Indicate when blood is oxygenated (blue) and not (red)
Arrows for direction if you do a picture
Draw an EKG (normal)
Know what abnormal EKGs look like (probably should draw them), and what the abnormalities are called (in your book!) Dpict a NORMAL EKG and explain what the waves/letters indicate
