  2. Pulmonary vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_vein

    Pulmonary vein anatomy is highly variable among atrial fibrillation patients. [5] Pulmonary vein isolation by transcatheter ablation can restore sinus rhythm. [4] As atrial fibrillation becomes more persistent, the junction between the pulmonary veins and the left atrium becomes less of an initiator and the left atrium becomes an independent ...

  3. Pulmonary circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_circulation

    The pulmonary circulation is a division of the circulatory system in all vertebrates. The circuit begins with deoxygenated blood returned from the body to the right atrium of the heart where it is pumped out from the right ventricle to the lungs.

  4. Blood vessel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_vessel

    The circulatory system uses the channel of blood vessels to deliver blood to all parts of the body. This is a result of the left and right sides of the heart working together to allow blood to flow continuously to the lungs and other parts of the body. Oxygen-poor blood enters the right side of the heart through two large veins.

  5. Circulatory system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulatory_system

    The circulatory system is further divided into two major circuits – a pulmonary circulation, and a systemic circulation. [8] [1] [3] The pulmonary circulation is a circuit loop from the right heart taking deoxygenated blood to the lungs where it is oxygenated and returned to the left heart.

  6. Lung - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung

    The pulmonary circulation carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and returns the oxygenated blood to the heart to supply the rest of the body. [32] The blood volume of the lungs is about 450 millilitres on average, about 9% of the total blood volume of the entire circulatory system.

  7. Vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vein

    The venous system is the system of veins in the systemic and pulmonary circulations that return blood to the heart. In the systemic circulation the return is of deoxygenated blood from the organs and tissues of the body, and in the pulmonary circulation the pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.

    Details; System: Circulatory: Artery: Aorta, [a] pulmonary trunk and right and left pulmonary arteries, [b] right coronary artery, left main coronary artery [c]: Vein: Superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, [d] right and left pulmonary veins, [e] great cardiac vein, middle cardiac vein, small cardiac vein, anterior cardiac veins [f]

    The function of the right heart, is to collect de-oxygenated blood, in the right atrium, from the body via the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava and from the coronary sinus and pump it, through the tricuspid valve, via the right ventricle, through the semilunar pulmonary valve and into the pulmonary artery in the pulmonary circulation ...
