Title: a study on human heart
Description: This study presents a comprehensive overview of the human heart, a vital organ responsible for circulating blood and sustaining life. It explores the anatomical structure, including the heart's chambers, valves, and blood vessels, as well as the physiological mechanisms that regulate its function, such as the cardiac cycle and electrical conduction system. The report also highlights the heart's role in maintaining systemic and pulmonary circulation, details various cardiovascular diseases and disorders, and discusses modern diagnostic methods used in cardiology. Preventive measures, lifestyle recommendations, and recent technological advances in heart care are also examined. Through this detailed study, the aim is to provide foundational knowledge of cardiac anatomy and physiology while promoting awareness of cardiovascular health and the importance of early intervention and lifestyle management in preventing heart disease.

DETAILED STUDY ON THE HUMAN HEART
1
...
Its
primary function is to pump blood throughout the body, supplying oxygen and nutrients to tissues
and removing carbon dioxide and other wastes
...
2
...
1 Size and Location
- Roughly the size of a clenched fist
...
2
...
- Right Ventricle: Pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs
...
- Left Ventricle: Pumps oxygenated blood to the body
...
3 Valves
- Tricuspid Valve: Between right atrium and right ventricle
...
- Mitral (Bicuspid) Valve: Between left atrium and left ventricle
...
3
...
1 Cardiac Cycle
- Diastole: Relaxation phase where chambers fill with blood
...
3
...
- Atrioventricular (AV) Node: Relays signal to ventricles
...
3
...
- Systemic Circulation: Left heart -> Body -> Right heart
...
Functions of the Heart
- Pumping blood to lungs for oxygenation and to the rest of the body for distribution of oxygen and
nutrients
...
- Regulating body temperature by controlling blood flow
...
5
...
- Heart Attack (Myocardial Infarction): Death of heart tissue due to blocked blood flow
...
- Arrhythmias: Irregular heart rhythms
...
- Valvular Heart Disease: Malfunctioning heart valves
...
Heart Diagnostics
- Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG): Measures electrical activity
...
- Cardiac MRI/CT: Imaging techniques for structure and function
...
- Angiography: Visualizes coronary arteries
...
Heart Health and Preventive Care
7
...
- Regular Exercise: At least 150 minutes of moderate activity per week
...
- Maintain Healthy Weight
...
7
...
- Diabetes management
...
8
...
- Minimally Invasive Surgeries
...
- Wearable Cardiac Monitors
