Definition that contains left ventricle
- aorta the large trunk artery that carries blood from the left ventricle of the heart to branch arteries
- left atrioventricular valve valve with two cusps; situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle
- ventricular aneurysm a localized dilation or protrusion on the wall of the left ventricle of the heart (occurring after a myocardial infarction)
- blood pressure the pressure of the circulating blood against the walls of the blood vessels; results from the systole of the left ventricle of the heart; sometimes measured for a quick evaluation of a person's health
- mitral valve valve with two cusps; situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle
- aortic valve a semilunar valve between the left ventricle and the aorta; prevents blood from flowing from the aorta back into the heart
- mitral valve prolapse cardiopathy resulting from the mitral valve not regulating the flow of blood between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart
- ascending aorta the ascending part of the aorta as it emerges from the left ventricle
- systolic pressure the blood pressure (as measured by a sphygmomanometer) during the contraction of the left ventricle of the heart
- bicuspid valve valve with two cusps; situated between the left atrium and the left ventricle
