1.5 Minimum Cost Analyses. A similar, but different problem is the determination of the point of minimum total cost. Instead of balancing two methods with different fixed and variable costs, the aim is to bring the sum of two costs to a minimum.
The tricuspid valve forms the boundary between the right ventricle and the right atrium. Deoxygenated blood enters the right side of the heart via the inferior and superior vena cava.
The medical term for the valve between the right atrium and right ventricle is known as the triscupid valve. So called because of its three leaflets. It must be noted however, that the tricuspid valve can contain between two and four leaflets. Another name for the triscuspid valve is the right atrioventricular valve.
