Ventricular (lat. ventricularis) is a term referring to the ventricles of the heart or brain.
In the heart, there are right and left ventricles. The right ventricle receives venous blood from the right atrium and sends it to the pulmonary artery to oxygenate the lungs. The left ventricle receives arterial blood from the left atrium and pushes it into the aorta, from where it is distributed throughout the body. Thus, ventricular refers to the structures and processes occurring in the ventricles of the heart.
The brain contains cerebral ventricles - cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid. They play an important role in the circulation of this fluid. The ventricular system of the brain includes the right and left lateral ventricles, the third and fourth ventricles. Ventricular in this context refers to the structures and functions of the ventricles of the brain.
The ventricular muscle is one of the main muscles in the human body. It is located in the inner layer of the abdominal cavity and surrounds the heart and lungs. Ventricular muscles are an important part of human anatomy and physiology, and their function and role in the health of the body are critical.
Functions of the ventricular muscles:
1. Cardiac output: The ventricle muscles are involved in the contraction of the ventricles of the heart, which helps the heart pump blood to the rest of the organs. This is called cardiac output - one of the main directions of functioning of the cardiac system. 2. Providing breathing: The ventricular muscles also play an important role in the inhalation and exhalation of the lungs. They control the abdominals and diaphragm, which support body posture, and facilitate breathing. 3. Organ Support: The ventricular muscles also add tension to the abdominal wall, helping to maintain the position and shape of the organs. This applies to both large internal organs and small organs and structures. 4. Embryo migration: in early fetal development, embryo movement occurs with the help of ventricular muscles. By maintaining the position of the baby's head, the muscles line the migration paths and help shape the embryo in the right direction. 5. Cerebral Circulation: A small number of ventricular muscles located around the cerebral cortex regulate cerebral circulation and help prevent edema, venous congestion, or blood clots.
Ventricular motility can be divided into types: - Prevertellar ventricular motility - muscle contractions in the inverter
