Deborah is a 63-year-old woman brought by ambulance to the emergency room after she developed chest pain radiating to her left arm with difficult breathing, sweating, nausea, and light-headedness. She was exercising at the gym when this occurred. In the emergency room, she still had the chest pain and underwent diagnostic testing, including blood tests, chest x-ray, and a test of the electrical conduction system of the heart. This test is called a(n) ______________ (1). Based on these tests, Deborah is given the diagnosis of a heart attack, also known as a(n) ______________ (2). Early in the course of a heart attack, an accurate diagnosis of where the blockage is and clearing the blockage out of the artery will save heart muscle from dying. Thus, Deborah was taken for a test called coronary angiography to image the arteries of the heart. The test to image the arteries of the heart is also called _____________ (3). The image resulting from this test, called a(n) _____________ (4), showed a blockage in a major artery of the heart, generally known as a(n) _____________ (5). During the cardiac catheterization used to obtain the angiogram, a balloon can be used to open the blocked artery. This procedure is called a(n) _____________ (6). Frequently this procedure is followed with placing a scaffold to keep the artery open. This scaffold is called a(n) _____________ (7). Because of this series of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, Deborah did not have any significant heart muscle damage. The heart muscle itself is called _____________ (8).
