Definition that contains systole
- systolic of or relating to a systole or happening during a systole
- asystole absence of systole; failure of the ventricles of the heart to contract (usually caused by ventricular fibrillation) with consequent absence of the heart beat leading to oxygen lack and eventually to death
- extrasystolic of or relating to or happening during an extrasystole
- systolic murmur a murmur heard during systole
- blood pressure the pressure of the circulating blood against the walls of the blood vessels; results from the systole of the left ventricle of the heart; sometimes measured for a quick evaluation of a person's health
- cardiac arrest absence of systole; failure of the ventricles of the heart to contract (usually caused by ventricular fibrillation) with consequent absence of the heart beat leading to oxygen lack and eventually to death
- extrasystole a premature systole resulting in a momentary cardiac arrhythmia
- cardiopulmonary arrest absence of systole; failure of the ventricles of the heart to contract (usually caused by ventricular fibrillation) with consequent absence of the heart beat leading to oxygen lack and eventually to death
