The University of SheffieldMedicine

This document provides a detailed overview of the basic anatomy of the heart, covering its location in the mediastinum, borders, surfaces, and the structure of the pericardium. It describes the four heart chambers (right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, and left ventricle), their functions, and key features like valves (tricuspid, mitral, semilunar, and aortic) and the conducting system (SA node, AV node, bundle of His, and Purkinje fibers). The document also explains the heart's blood supply, innervation, and the role of cardiac muscle in contraction. This comprehensive guide is essential for understanding the heart's anatomy and its physiological functions.
