The right ventricle is the chamber within the heart that is responsible for pumping oxygen-depleted blood to the lungs. The right ventricle is one of the heart’s four chambers.

Singh, M., Bonnemain, J., Ozturk, C. et al. Robotic right ventricle is a biohybrid platform that simulates right ventricular function in (patho)physiological conditions and intervention.

An injectable hydrogel can mitigate damage to the right ventricle of the heart with chronic pressure overload, according to a new study. In 2019, this same hydrogel was shown to be safe in humans ...

The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs, where the blood releases waste gases and picks up oxygen. The newly oxygen-rich blood (shown in red) returns to the heart and enters the left atrium.

MIT engineers have developed a robotic replica of the heart's right ventricle, which mimics the beating and blood-pumping action of live hearts. The robo-ventricle combines real heart tissue with ...

Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV) In this dextrocardia type, the aorta connects to the right ventricle instead of the left ventricle. The right ventricle is the part of the heart that pumps ...

Right ventricular hypertrophy is the thickening of the walls in the right ventricle of the heart. The condition can increase the risk of heart failure in some people. This MNT Knowledge Center ...

Right heart failure occurs when the cardiac output from the right ventricle is not able to meet the demands of the body. The most common cause of right heart failure is left heart failure. As the ...

Enlargement of the heart's right ventricle is the strongest predictor that a COVID-19 patient is more likely to die, according to a study led by the Ichan School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New ...

The right coronary artery supplies blood to a part of the heart. To do this effectively, it branches off into smaller arteries, such as the conus artery and the sinoatrial nodal branch.
