To ensure your deposit accounts are covered by FDIC insurance, you'll need to do two things. First, verify that your bank is a Member FDIC.. Virtually all banks are required to carry FDIC insurance, but some state-chartered banks may be grandfathered out of the requirement.
A bicuspid aortic valve is a heart condition that is usually due to a congenital deformity. A normal aortic valve has three cusps, whereas a bicuspid valve has only two. About 1-2% of the population have bicuspid aortic valves, although the condition is nearly twice as common in males. The majority will cause no problems.
The four main valves in the heart are: 1  The two atrioventricular (AV) valves, the mitral valve (bicuspid valve), and the tricuspid valve, which are between the upper chambers (atria) and the lower chambers (ventricles). 2  The two semilunar (SL) valves, the aortic valve and the pulmonary valve, which are in the arteries leaving the heart. The mitral valve and the aortic valve are in the left heart; the tricuspid valve and the pulmonary valve are in the right heart. There are also the coronary sinus and the inferior vena cava valves.
