Valves prevent back flow of blood from say for example the tricuspid valve prevents back flow to the right atrium. If something happens to that then the blood would flow back to the right atrium instead of going straight to the right ventricles and out to the pulmonary artery. It would cause deoxygenated blood to flow backwards which is called valvular heart disease.
That's exactly right! Valves in the heart are essential for directing the flow of blood in one direction and preventing it from flowing backward. For example, the tricuspid valve, located between the right atrium and right ventricle, ensures that deoxygenated blood flows correctly from the atrium to the ventricle without backflow. If this valve malfunctions, which can occur due to conditions like valvular stenosis or regurgitation, it can lead to inefficiency in the heart's ability to pump blood.
Thank you for this video !!!!
You are amazing !!!
Thank you. You are too!
