Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) occurs when the heart's tricuspid valve leaks, allowing blood to flow back from the right ventricle to the right atrium.

The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium of the heart from the right ventricle, preventing blood from flowing from the ventricle back into the atrium.

In 1929, for example, German medical resident Werner Forssmann inserted a catheter through the vein in his elbow and snaked it into the right atrium of his heart, and documented the accomplishment with an X-ray of his chest — a very early version of cardiac catheterization, and work that led to Forssmann's sharing the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

The veins finally dump the unoxygenated blood into the right atrium.

The right atrium receives blood that has passed through the tissues of the body and is depleted of oxygen.

The blood enters into the heart through the right atrium, which is the upper right part of the heart.

«Dirty» blood (carrying carbon dioxide from organs, tissues, and cells) enters the right atrium through large vena cava veins and flows to the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve.

Several adult heartworms were visualized during Chico's echocardiogram in his pulmonary arteries as well as several worms within his right atrium which were not causing obstruction to blood flow.

From the right atrium the blood goes down into the right ventricle.

A small area of special tissue in the right atrium called the sinoatrial (SA) node starts an electrical impulse (it's like the heart's spark plug) that will eventually travel down special electrical tracts (AV node, Bundle Branches, Purkinje Fibers — the heart's «wiring») within the heart and cause the heart muscle to contract (see Figure 2 below).

Blood flows from the body into the right atrium.

This is termed «lone atrial fibrillation» and occurs because the natural size of their left and right atria is similar to the heart size of humans (who, as we mentioned earlier, can also get «lone atrial fibrillation»).

Graphic representation of a normal electrical impulse starting in the sinoatrial node (SA) and traveling through the right atrium (RA) and left atrium (LA), through the AV node and right and left bundle branches to cause a causing the heart muscle to contract in an organized way.

Surgical retrieval of worms from the right atrium, right ventricle, and vena cavae via jugular venotomy can be attempted in patients with high worm burdens detected by echocardiography.

In other words, when the heart contracts or «pumps», instead of the right ventricle pushing the blood through the lungs for oxygenation, some leaks through the tricuspid valve (the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle) back into the right atrium.

Once the blood is circulated and exhausted, veins carry it back toward the heart via the right atrium to begin the process again

Normal heartbeats start in the right atrium, but in sick hearts, the heartbeats can start from any chamber.

In caval syndrome cases (class IV), surgical removal of worms from the right atrium and orifice of the tricuspid valve is necessary to save the life of the dog.

(Both the mitral and tricuspid valves are atrioventricular valves - valves between the left and right atria and ventricles, respectively.)

When the valve is open, blood flows freely through the opening from the right atrium into the right ventricle.

In a healthy dog with a normal heart, the tricuspid valve provides a means of opening and closing the path between two chambers of the heart, the right atrium and the right ventricle.

The tricuspid valve is the valve that is located between the right atrium and right ventricle.

Other frequent sites include the right atrium, skin and sub-cutis and liver.

The one between the right atrium and ventricle is the tricuspid valve.

If severe enough it can eventually lead to an enlarged right heart and regurgitation of blood through the tricupid valve and into the right atrium.

Just like in the right atrium, when there is enough blood present, the left atrium contracts and the blood flows through the mitral valve into the left ventricle.

The еtiology for rupture of the left atrium is uncleаr, but probably is related with the high pressure in the left and right atrium and the so called jet lesions from the mitral and tricuspid regurgitation.
