The heart is a muscle which pumps blood through 4 chambers in the heart. If the left ventricle is enlarged it could affect the child's blood pressure. It is important to stay in touch with the child's pediatrician or cardiologist for monitoring. The physician will keep notes on the child's progress and till you about any precautions you need to take with the child.
What else can I help you with?
Where does the mitral valve allow blood to enter during contraction of left ventricle?
The mitral valve allows blood to enter the left ventricle from the left atrium during contraction of the left ventricle. This valve opens to allow blood flow from the atrium to the ventricle and then closes to prevent backflow of blood.
What vessel is the blood pumped from the left ventricle?
Blood is pumped by both the left and right ventricles. Blood pumped by the right ventricle is to the lungs only while the left ventricle pumps to the rest of the body. This is why the walls of the left ventricle are significantly thicker than the walls of the right.
4 hollow sections of the heart?
They are the right ventricle, left ventricle, right atrium, and left atrium. For more details you can take a look here: http://heartdisease.about.com/cs/starthere/a/chambersvalves.htm http://www.revolutionhealth.com/articles/chambers-of-the-heart/tp10241
Why is the left ventricle larger in size compared to the right ventricle?
The left ventricle is larger than the right ventricle because it needs to pump blood to the entire body, while the right ventricle only needs to pump blood to the lungs. This size difference allows the left ventricle to generate more force to push blood throughout the body.
What mechanism prevents the blood from flowing from the left ventricle back into the left atrium?
The mitral valve prevents blood from flowing back from the left ventricle to the left atrium in the heart.
What is the large artery that carries blood out from the left ventricle?
The Aorta
Which chamber of the heart pumps blood through the aorta to the body?
It comes from the left ventricle out through the aorta.
What is the ventricle?
The right and left ventricle almost have the same job. The left ventricle has a harder job then the right ventricle. The right ventricle only has to contract and blood is forced out of the heart through a large vessel. And then has to pump the blood into the lungs. The left ventricle has a lot harder job it actually works six times more harder then the right ventricle. The left ventricle has to pump blood through your WHOLE body. Yea it has a lot harder job. :)
Which chamber or the heart does the aorta attach to?
left ventricle
Is left ventricle an artery?
A left ventricle is not an artery.
What is the large chambers of the heart?
The left ventricle is the largest and most muscular chamber of the heart.
What are the 4 chambers of the heart?
Right Atrium , Left Atrium , Right Ventricle , Left Ventricle
What wall separates the right ventricle from the left ventricle of the heart called?
The intraventricular septum separates the right ventricle from the left ventricle.
What are the four ventricles of the ventricular system?
the different types of ventricles are the left ventricle and the right ventricle.
What is the inferior discharging chamber of the left side of the heart?
left ventricle
The myocardium would be the thickest in the left ventricle?
around the left ventricle
Oxygenated blood leaves through which ventricle?
Oxygenated blood is pumped out of the heart by the left ventricle.
