Each heart valve has two important functions: To open correctly so that blood can empty from the chamber. To close properly so that blood cannot flow the wrong way. When the valves and chambers fail to move blood properly, symptoms may eventually develop and may require critically important treatment. Learn more about the roles of your heart valves.
The four heart valves make sure that blood always flows freely in a forward direction and that there is no backward leakage. Blood flows from your right and left atria into your ventricles through the open mitral and tricuspid valves. When the ventricles are full, the mitral and tricuspid valves shut. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atria while the ventricles contract (squeeze).
