Endocarditis

Front

Infection of the endocardium

Back

Pulmonary artery

Front

Right atrium blood passes to the right ventricle where it leaves the heart through this; carried blood to the lungs

Back

Ventricles

Front

Pump out all the blood that runs through the heart

Back

cordae tendinae

Front

chords that anchor the tricuspid and bicuspid valves

Back

Endocardium

Front

Thin serous membrane that lines the inner surface of the heart wall

Back

Inferior vena cava

Front

Lower blue vessel; transports oxygen poor blood from the trunk and legs into the right atrium

Back

Ventricular septum

Front

Separates the two ventricles

Back

Pericardial sac

Front

surrounds the heart; consists of serous and fibrous layers

Back

Pulmonary veins

Front

Transport blood from the lungs to the left atrium

Back

Tricuspid valve

Front

between right atrium and right ventricle

Back

Epicardium

Front

Serious membrane attached to the outer surface of the heart wall

Back

Bicuspid

Front

Mitral valve; between left atrium and left ventricle

Back

Myocardium

Front

Muscular portion of the heart wall; makes up the bulk of the wall thickness

Back

Superior vena cava

Front

Upper blue vessel on the right atrium; transports oxygen poor blood to right atrium from the head and arms

Back

Pulmonary and aortic semilunar valves

Front

Located at the base of the pulmonary artery and aorta; prevent blood from flowing back into the heart during ventricular relaxation

Back

Atria

Front

Receive all the blood that enters the heart
