# data[].attributes.body
A large vein that carries blood to the heart from other areas of the body

# data[].attributes.body
controls the flow of blood from your heart's right atrium (top chamber) to the right ventricle (bottom chamber).

# data[].attributes.body
generates an electrical signal that causes the upper heart chambers (atria) to contract

# data[].attributes.body
one of the four chambers of the heart

# data[].attributes.body
play a major role in electrical conduction and propagation of impulse to the ventricular muscle

# data[].attributes.body
blood vessels that transfer freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atria of the heart

# data[].attributes.body
the passageways between your heart's ventricles (lower chambers) and arteries

# data[].attributes.body
transport deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs for oxygenation

# data[].attributes.body
the membrane enclosing the heart, consisting of an outer fibrous layer and an inner double layer of serous membrane.

# data[].attributes.body
swelling and irritation of the thin, saclike tissue surrounding the heart (pericardium).

# data[].attributes.body
a skipped, extra or irregular heartbeat

# data[].attributes.body
the muscular tissue of the heart.

# data[].attributes.body
inflammation of your heart muscle (myocardium)

# data[].attributes.body
caused by decreased or complete cessation of blood flow to a portion of the myocardium

# data[].attributes.body
the blood makes an extra noise as it flows through the heart

# data[].attributes.body
a type of heart valve disease that affects the valve between the left heart chambers

# data[].attributes.body
an integral part of the cardiovascular system

# data[].attributes.body
a serous membrane that forms the innermost layer of the pericardium and the outer surface of the heart

# data[].attributes.body
the thin, smooth membrane which lines the inside of the chambers of the heart and forms the surface of the valves

# data[].attributes.body
inflammation of the inside lining of the heart chambers and heart valves

# data[].attributes.body
difficult or labored breathing

# data[].attributes.body
devices that send an electric pulse or shock to the heart to restore a normal heartbeat

# data[].attributes.body
Damage or disease in the heart's major blood vessels

# data[].attributes.body
a serious condition in which the heart doesn't pump blood as efficiently as it should

# data[].attributes.body
the insertion of a catheter into a chamber or vessel of the heart

# data[].attributes.body
an elongated segment connecting the AV Node and the left and right bundle branches of the septal crest

# data[].attributes.body
a heart rate that's too slow

# data[].attributes.body
located between the left atrium and left ventricle

# data[].attributes.body
one of the four chambers of the heart.

# data[].attributes.body
introduces a delay between atrial and ventricular excitation, allowing for efficient ventricular fillin
