Blood flow in the heart is done by the contraction of the heart muscle.
The cardiac cycle is divided into two periods:
Diastole - The ventricle muscle is relaxed
Systole - The ventricle muscle is contracted
The circulation of blood can be divided into two cycles: the Systemic Cycle and the Pulmonary Cycle.
The heart consists of four chambers:
Right and Left Atrium, and the Right and Left Ventricles.
The Atrium is connected to Ventricles via valves and the right and left sides are separated by a septum.
The heart consists of four key valves:
- Those between the Atrium and the Ventricles - On the right side the Tricuspid Valve (3 cusps), and on the left side Mitral Valve (2 cusps).
- Those between the Ventricles and out of the heart, commonly known as the Semilunar Valves (3 cusps) - On the right side the Pulmonary Valve and on the left side Aortic Valve.
The heart consists of four chambers:
Right and Left Atrium, and the Right and Left Ventricles.
The Atrium is connected to Ventricles via valves and the right and left sides are separated by a septum.
The heart muscle itself is composed of different layers, which can be divided into three main layers (from outside to inside):
- Pericardium
- Myocardium
- Endocardial Layer (Endocardium)
