As you know, I like to search the Internet for anything that might help patients and caregivers better understand their hearts and their heart valves – before, during and after heart valve surgery. On that note, I recently came across a very neat, very interactive heart anatomy chart at YourHeartValve.com ^[1].

This chart enables the user to scroll over the different parts of the human heart to learn more about the different structures within the heart and how they function. If you are interested in learning more about the basics of human heart anatomy, please click the image below or this link ^[2].

I hope this helps you better understand how the human heart functions!

Keep on tickin!
