Relating to the movement or motion of the heart.
From Greek 'kardia' (heart) + 'kinetikos' (relating to motion, from 'kinein' meaning to move). This medical term emerged to describe substances or conditions that affect cardiac motion.
Some drugs are cardiokinetic stimulants—they literally make your heart beat stronger and faster—which is why your doctor warns you about too much caffeine or certain medications if you have heart problems.
