Valves in the heart serve the critical function of ensuring unidirectional blood flow through the heart's chambers and into the arteries. They open and close in response to pressure changes, preventing the backflow of blood and maintaining efficient circulation. There are four main valves: the tricuspid and mitral valves regulate blood flow between the atria and ventricles, while the pulmonary and aortic valves control blood flow out of the ventricles into the lungs and body, respectively. This coordinated action is essential for effective heart function and overall cardiovascular health.

Why is endocarditis serious?
Endocarditis is serious because it can lead to complications such as heart valve damage, heart failure, stroke, or sepsis, and can be life-threatening if not promptly treated. The infection affects the inner lining of the heart chambers and valves, which can interfere with blood flow and potentially cause serious cardiac issues. Treatment often requires intravenous antibiotics or surgery to repair damaged heart valves.
