Valves

Valves

Valves are flaps of tissue that stop blood flowing backwards

There are two kinds of valves in the heart.

The first kind is the massive valves between the atria and the ventricles, the atrio-ventricular valves, (AV valves) that prevent blood in the ventricles from flowing back into the atria.

The flaps of these valves are attached to the walls of the ventricles by tendons – chordae tendinae

Valves

Valves

The second kind of valve is pocket shaped flaps of tissue called the semilunar (half moon) valves

They are called the pulmonary and aortic valves and found at the entrance of the pulmonary artery and aorta respectively

What’s the Lub Dub?

What’s the Lub Dub?

The first heart sound (lub) is caused by the acceleration and deceleration of blood and a vibration of the heart at the time of the closure of the tricuspid and mitral valves.

The second heart sound (dub) is caused by the same acceleration and deceleration of blood and vibrations at the time of closure of the pulmonic and aortic valves.
