Tricuspid Valve
• Guards the orifice between the RA and the right
ventricle and prevents backflow (regurgitation) of blood
from RV to RA during systole
• Has 3 cusps that correspond to 3 papillary muscle
(anterior, posterior, and septal papillary muscles) that is
connected via the chordae tendinae (which prevents the
separation of the cusps during contraction)
Mitral Valve

• Supplies atria and ventricles
• Do not have chordae tendinae to support them
• Has 2 main sources:
• Smaller in area than the cusps of the AV valves
▪ Left Coronary Artery (LCA)
because force exerted on them is less than half of that
▪ Right Coronary Artery (RCA)

Aortic Valves
• Valve that connects the LV to the aorta (leads to
systemic circulation)
Pulmonary Valve
• Valve that connects the RV to the pulmonary artery
(leads to pulmonary circulation)
