LIMA: Left Internal Mammary Artery – Definition
Inside your chest, there’s a special blood tube called the left internal mammary artery (LIMA). It runs down near your breastbone and helps bring blood to your chest. This artery is really strong and doesn’t clog up easily. Because of that, doctors often use it like a “spare pipe” when someone’s heart needs a bypass….
AVR: Aortic Valve Replacement – Definition
Your heart has little “doors” that open and close to let blood flow the right way. One of the most important doors is called the aortic valve. It’s the door between the big pumping room of your heart (the left ventricle) and the big tube (the aorta) that sends blood all around your body. Sometimes…
LV: Left Ventricle – Definition
The left ventricle (LV) is the thick-walled, cone-shaped chamber of the heart responsible for pumping oxygen-rich blood into the systemic circulation via the aorta. Positioned at the bottom left of the heart, it receives blood from the left atrium through the mitral valve, then contracts forcefully to generate the high pressures necessary to propel blood…

When the vessels stay relaxed and open, it’s easier for blood to flow, so your heart doesn’t have to work as hard. Some examples of these medicines are…
AMI: Acute Myocardial Infarction – Definition
A heart attack happens when one of the blood tubes that feed your heart gets blocked, so the heart muscle doesn’t get enough oxygen. It’s like when a garden hose gets pinched and the water can’t flow. The blocked part of your heart can start to hurt and die, causing chest pain and shortness of…
ASD: Atrial Septal Defect – Definition
An atrial septal defect is a hole between the two top chambers of the heart. It means that the wall (septum) didn’t close all the way, so blood that just came from the lungs mixes with blood that still needs oxygen. This extra flow makes the right side of the heart and the lungs work…
