The mitral valve is without doubt the part of the human body that is most under pressure. For every beat of the heart, the mitral valve has to open to let the blood into the most muscular chamber in the body, and then closes to withstand high systolic pressures that, during periods of exertion, can exceed over 200 mmHg.

For every beat of the heart, the mitral valve has to open to let the blood into the most muscular chamber in the body, and then closes to withstand high systolic pressures that, during periods of exertion, can exceed over 200 mmHg.File allegati a questo prodotto
