    The heart is divided into four chambers with two chambers on top called the atria and two on bottom called the ventricles. Blood enters the right atrium from two large veins and carries blood from the upper body. There are four valves in the heart that control blood flow through the heart. Coronary circulation supplies oxygenated blood to the heart muscle through coronary arteries and drains deoxygenated blood through cardiac veins. Interruptions in coronary circulation can cause heart attacks from oxygen starvation of the heart muscle.

    INTRODUCTION:-

    YOUR HEART IS DIVIDED INTO FOUR CHAMBERS. YOU HAVE TWO


    CHAMBERS ON THE TOP (ATRIUM, PLURAL ATRIA) AND TWO ON THE
    BOTTOM (VENTRICLES), ONE ON EACH SIDE OF THE HEART. RIGHT
    ATRIUM: TWO LARGE VEINS DELIVER OXYGEN-POOR BLOOD TO
    YOUR RIGHT ATRIUM. THE SUPERIOR VENA CAVA CARRIES BLOOD
    FROM YOUR UPPER BODY.
    • OVERVIEW OF THE HEART AND THE INTERNAL
    STRUCTURE
    • IT IS A MUSCULAR ORGAN AROUND THE SIZE OF A CLOSED FIST, AND IT SITS IN
    THE CHEST, SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT OF CENTER. THE HEART BEATS AROUND
    100,000 TIMES A DAY, PUMPING APPROXIMATELY 4.5LITERS OF BLOOD
    THROUGHOUT THE BODY 24/7. THIS DELIVERS OXYGEN- AND NUTRIENT-RICH
    BLOOD TO TISSUES AND ORGANS AND CARRIES AWAY WASTE. YOUR HEART IS
    DIVIDED INTO FOUR CHAMBERS. YOU HAVE TWO CHAMBERS ON THE TOP
    (ATRIUM, PLURAL ATRIA) AND TWO ON THE BOTTOM (VENTRICLES), ONE ON
    EACH SIDE OF THE HEART. RIGHT ATRIUM: TWO LARGE VEINS DELIVER OXYGEN-
    POOR BLOOD TO YOUR RIGHT ATRIUM. THE SUPERIOR VENA CAVA CARRIES
    BLOOD FROM YOUR UPPER BODY.
    • VALVES OF THE
    HEART
    • THERE ARE FOUR VALVES IN THE HEART: AORTIC
    VALVE, MITRAL VALVE, TRICUSPID VALVE, AND
    PULMONARY VALVE. THE VALVES ARE DESIGNED TO
    CONTROL THE DIRECTION OF BLOOD FLOW
    THROUGH THE HEART. THE OPENING AND CLOSING
    OF THE HEART VALVES PRODUCE THE HEART-BEAT
    SOUNDS.TWO OF THE VALVES, THE MITRAL AND THE
    TRICUSPID VALVES, MOVE BLOOD FROM THE UPPER
    CHAMBERS OF THE HEART (THE ATRIA) TO THE
    LOWER CHAMBERS OF THE HEART (THE
    VENTRICLES). THE OTHER TWO VALVES, THE
    AORTIC AND PULMONARY VALVES, MOVE BLOOD TO
    THE LUNGS AND THE REST OF THE BODY THROUGH
    THE VENTRICLES.
    • PERICARDIUM (PERICARDIAL
    SAC)
    • PERICARDIUM IS A PROTECTIVE, FLUID-
    FILLED SAC THAT SURROUNDS YOUR
    HEART AND HELPS IT FUNCTION
    PROPERLY.WE HAVE THREE LAYERS OF
    TISSUE FORM THE HEART WALL;- THE
    EPICARDIUM IS THE OUTER LAYER THAT
    CONTAINS BLOOD VESSELS. THE
    MYOCARDIUM IS THE MIDDLE LAYER
    THAT IS COMPOSED OF CONTRACTILE
    TISSUES. THE ENDOCARDIUM IS THE
    INNERMOST LAYER AND COMPOSES THE
    VALVES, INNER LINING OF THE
    CHAMBERS, AND CONTAINS VESSELS AND
    • CORONARY CIRCULATION

    • CORONARY CIRCULATION IS THE CIRCULATION OF BLOOD IN THE ARTERIES AND VEINS THAT SUPPLY
    THE HEART MUSCLE (MYOCARDIUM). CORONARY ARTERIES SUPPLY OXYGENATED BLOOD TO THE
    HEART MUSCLE. CARDIAC VEINS THEN DRAIN AWAY THE BLOOD AFTER IT HAS BEEN DEOXYGENATED.
    BECAUSE THE REST OF THE BODY, AND MOST ESPECIALLY THE BRAIN, NEEDS A STEADY SUPPLY OF
    OXYGENATED BLOOD THAT IS FREE OF ALL BUT THE SLIGHTEST INTERRUPTIONS, THE HEART IS
    REQUIRED TO FUNCTION CONTINUOUSLY. THEREFORE ITS CIRCULATION IS OF MAJOR IMPORTANCE NOT
    ONLY TO ITS OWN TISSUES BUT TO THE ENTIRE BODY AND EVEN THE LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE
    BRAIN FROM MOMENT TO MOMENT. INTERRUPTIONS OF CORONARY CIRCULATION QUICKLY CAUSE
    HEART ATTACKS (MYOCARDIAL INFARCTIONS), IN WHICH THE HEART MUSCLE IS DAMAGED BY OXYGEN
    STARVATION. SUCH INTERRUPTIONS ARE USUALLY CAUSED BY CORONARY ISCHEMIA LINKED TO
    CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE, AND SOMETIMES TO EMBOLISM FROM OTHER CAUSES LIKE OBSTRUCTION
    IN BLOOD FLOW THROUGH VESSELS.
