Valves of the heart (preview) - Human Anatomy | Kenhub

This is a preview to our video tutorial which discusses the anatomy of the valves of the heart, which include the tricuspid valve, mitral valve, pulmonary valve and aortic valve. See the full video here: khub.me/tgb88

The valves of the heart serve the cardiovascular system by controlling the direction of the blood flow during circulation and determining the exact moment in which the blood passes between the chambers of the heart as well as in and out of it entirely. In this tutorial, we will be describing the different valves of the heart which are:
- The tricuspid valve or right atrioventricular valve, found between the right atrium and right ventricle
- The mitral valve, or left atrioventricular valve, found between the left atrium and left ventricle
- The pulmonary valve, found between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk,
- and the aortic valve, found between the left ventricle and aortic sinus.

Great job Man!!!

[@mahendramev7525]

Thanks for it

[@francesbernard2445]

No accident how the interface of a heart valve is shaped to increase the lift force that increases blook flow while the valve is opening in synch with the heart muscle fibers contracting.

Muito bem feito

[@user-rp9uz5eu7m]

Nice

[@kelebogileletsie8540]

thank you so much.❤️❤️

Wouldn't the mitral valve (bicuspid valve) open when the left ventricle is reducing in pressure (below the pressure of the left atrium, thus allowing the mitral valve to open and for ventricular filling to occur?). I thought if the left ventricle was increasing in pressure during systole, the pressure surge would cause the chordae tendineae to tether the mitral valve shut, to make sure the blood was ejected through the aortic valve only.....please correct me if I'm wrong, just studying at the moment HA

[@deansamuels2247]

Yup! During isovolumetric contraction, the ventricles increase in pressure, and as a result, that pushes the av valves up and back together.

I was told I had a leaky heart value, dont know where in the heart it is.

I dothé be noticed the inlet valvé is bé Largér thánn thé Exháust Valvé ¡¡¡¡

[@chuknorth]

bicuspid: 'two peaks', not 'two flaps'. Just fyi.
