What is the name of the valve at the end of the esophagus?
A band of muscles at the opening of the stomach called the Cardiac (due to its proximity to the heart) Sphincter.
How is mitral valve stenosis diagnosed?
Mitral valve stenosis is diagnosed by history, physical examination , listening to the sounds of the heart (cardiac auscultation), chest x ray , and ECG.
What is the role of the tricuspid valve?
The tricuspid valve is located on the right side of the heart between the right atrium and ventricle. The purpose of the valve is to close when the ventricle pumps blood into the pulmorary arteries that lead to the lungs. The bicuspid valve, or mitral valve, functions similarly to maintain blood flow in one direction only. The bicuspid valve is located on the right side of the heart. Oxygenated blood from the left ventricle is pumped throughout the body as the mitral valve stays closed during compression.
What do you think are the functions of the pyloric valve and the cardiac valve in a pig?
The cardiac sphincter is located at the top of the stomach and controls the direction of food passing through the esophagus so that no food will re enter the esophagus. The Pyloric sphincter stops bile and digested food from entering the stomach, this valve is located at the bottom of the stomach.
When does the AV valve closes during the cardiac cycle?
Not sure how much detail ur looking for here... but basically this is what it is. The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV). When the ventricles (right and left) contract, they send blood forward into the arteries (RV to pulmonary artery to send blood to lungs for oxygenation, LV to the aorta to distribute oxygenated blood throughout the body). The purpose of valves is to prevent blood from backflowing. Since you asked about the tricuspid valve, it prevents blood going back up from the RV to the RA. Just in case you don't know the basic heart circulation... deoxygenated blood from the body comes into the RA from the superior and inferior vena cavae, and from the RA goes into the RV. Between these two is the tricuspid valve, and when the RA contracts, blood gets pushed into the RV. When the RV contracts to push blood into the pulmonary artery, the tricuspid valve snaps shut in order to prevent blood from getting pushed up into the RA again. Similarly, there are 3 other valves that function for the same reason (aortic, mitral, and pulmonic). Failure of the valves to close properly causes many heart problems!
When is the mitral valve is normally?
The mitral valve, also called the AV valve, closes during ventricular systole, which is one of the part of the cardiac cycle. When the atria contracts (atrial systole), the ventricules fill with blood, causing the mitral valve to close in order to avoid the blood from flowing back into the atrium. Hope it helps!!
What cardiac cycle corresponds to the dicrotic notch?
aortic valve closure
When is the mitral valve normally closed?
The mitral valve, also called the AV valve, closes during ventricular systole, which is one of the part of the cardiac cycle. When the atria contracts (atrial systole), the ventricules fill with blood, causing the mitral valve to close in order to avoid the blood from flowing back into the atrium. Hope it helps!!
Are both sets of heart valves open during any part of the cardiac cycle?
Yes, both sets of valves are closed twice during any one cardiac cycle.
What causes the pulmonary valve to close?
This is caused by a difference in pressure: higher pressure in the ventricle than in the atrium. As the atrium contraction finishes filling the ventricle with blood, the equalization of pressure allows the valve to fold back toward the atrium. The beginning of the contraction of the ventricular cardiac muscle causes higher pressure in the ventricle than the atrium, and this seals the valve shut. The valve opens again as the ventricle relaxes, and the atrium, filled again with blood, begins another contraction.
What happens to a intake and exhaust valve during the power stage cycle in a four cycle gas engine?
If im not mistaken, during the power stage the intake and exhaust valves are both closed. the intake valve opens pulling air into the cylinder (cycle one) and the exhaust valve opens (cycle 4) to relase the air fuel mix that was ignited.
What is the correct position of the intake valve and the exhaust valve during most of the power stage in a four-cycle engine?
Closed
What cardiac valve has only two primary leaflets?
mitral valve
Is the cardiac sphincter at the junction of the stomach and small intestine?
The cardiac sphincter is the valve between the esophagus and the stomach.
What phase of the cardiac cycle is the heart in when all four valves of the heart are closed and ventricular pressure is building but is not yet great enough to open a valve?
That phase is called as isovolumetric contraction phase.
What is an annuloplasty?
An annuloplasty is the use of plastic to repair a cardiac valve.
What is valve float?
"Floating Valves" refers to a condition in which the valve-springs fail to fully close the valves, allowing them to "float" during the stroke cycle. Floating valves can result in valve-piston contact with consequent catastrophic mechanical damage. This is caused by revving the engine past it's red-line, or the maximum RPMs the engine was designed to run.
