Cardiac performance An echocardiogram can show how well your heart pumps blood (cardiac performance). To evaluate your cardiac performance‚ your doctor will mainly be interested in: • Your left ventricle‚ which pumps oxygen-rich blood to your entire body.

the pulmonary valve. To begin the dissection to view the valves of the heart‚ you will need to make a small incision transversely‚ just below the aortic arch. The incision will cut deep into the heart‚ but will not completely separate it. The cut will give the heart a clam-shell look. Once the incision has been made‚ carefully open the heart.

The blood is then able to exit the heart through the pulmonary artery‚ this then transports the blood to the lungs so that the blood can be oxygenated. The pulmonary valve The pulmonic valve is located in the right ventricle of the heart. The pulmonic valve is then opened by the blood as it increases the ventricular systole which is then able to contract
