The pathway of blood flow within the heart

Perfectly rhythmic and coordinated to ensure efficient pumping throughout the body, the circulation of blood within the heart is difficult to explain in words. In this video, you can follow step by step the path of the blood between the atria and ventricles of the heart, first in the right and then in the left side of the heart, with the indispensable ‘diversions’ to the lungs to recover oxygen. Have a safe journey!
