MR: The mitral valve has 2 leaflets which separates the left ventricle from the left atrium. Blood passes across the mv from the la to the lv when the heart is filling.  When the ventricle contracts, the mv is closed and no blood goes backward into the la unless regurgitation is present. Then the blood leaks backward, overfilling the la and raising the pressure.

Question 4

what is tricuspid regurgitation?

Accepted Answer

A leaky & weak valve: The heart is a machine with plumbing.  There are four holding tanks.  Two upper and two lower.  There are 4 valves in the heart that regulate the outflow.  On the right side of the heart the blood is pumped to the lungs to get oxygen.  The valve that is between the upper and lower is called the tricuspid valve.  When it is damaged blood pushed from the top to the bottom leaks back into the top.
