I think another important distinction to mention to students is that the "blue" colored blood (representing deoxygenated blood) in diagrams of the cardiovascular system isn't actually "blue" colored in reality. Some kids think that our deoxygenated blood is blue, but in reality it's just a darker red than oxygenated blood. Then you might ask why can I see bluish and greenish colored veins on my wrist. That's actually due to the way light interacts with your skin that makes it appear the blood inside those vessels are blue or green, but they're still (dark) red.

To make things worse, in an effort to simplify things, they simplified the explanation too much to where you don't get an acurate explanation, the narrator says "blood goes from one heart pump to the lungs, back to the second heart pump which sends it to the body" this kind of sounds as if he's saying that all the heart does is pump blood from one pump to another to be sent to the body, totally wrong, and confusing, I think I can make it a little more clear, please follow me if you wish: Deoxygenated blood, vena cava, left atrium, tricuspid valve, left ventricle, pulmonary semilunar valve, pulmonary artery Deoxygenated blood from the system will flow into the right atrium from the superior vena cava, then it'll pass through the right atrioventricular valve or tricuspid valve and into the right ventricle, the heart will contract and this blood will consecuently be pumped into the lungs through the pulmonary semilunar valve and the pulmonary artery to be properly oxygenated Oxygenated blood, pulmonary veins, right atrium, mitral valve, right ventricle, aortic valve, aorta Once oxygenated, the pulmonary veins will carry blood from the lungs and into the left atrium, the left atrium will pump this blood into the left ventricle through the left atrioventricular valve or mitral valve, once there the heart will contract and the left ventricle will pump the blood through the aortic valve and into the aorta and to the rest of the body This is a little more drawn out, and it's still very simplified but I think it's a little more clear than how the video describes it, I hope this helps.

Actually, I hope it helps you but it doesn't help anyone who's never seen it work before. Your second para is a list of nouns, as is your fourth.Your third and fifth paras are like tour guides. This is not informative for people who don't even understand what a pump is. The video addresses the fact that students usually don't even understand the most basic observation, which is that the heart is really two pumps- one to pump blood to the lungs, and the other to the body. The fact that oxygenation and deoxygenation occurs is also important. The names of the parts the blood passes through are actually just 'facts' to be regurgitated in an exam, at this level. They are non-explanatory. So many students have never seen a pump of any sort work nor know what a valve is, so calling something a mitral valve is non-explanatory. In any case, the video has one overriding point- it is about the discovery that we made that you can actually demonstrate this wonderful thing working in a school lab. Not a model, not an animation, but the real thing- and students can use their own hands to make it work. If you do this, you will understand and internalise the heart's function directly by experience- this is something that nobody knew could be done in hundreds of years of study of medicine and anatomy. Please try it.

Change the title to "how hard the heart is to understand" so it's not so confusing because I thought the video was going to explain how it works more

I feel like this video is misleading. I honestly felt like I got a pretty good understanding of how the heart works in my college biology class (not a med student). We didn't just label the parts but learned every step in how the heart pumps, where the blood flows, what electrical signals are being used, and when the blood is oxygenated vs not. Found it very fascinating.

I'm not trying to show it's super confusing. I'm pointing out that nobody ever figured out that you can ACTUALLY make it pump outside the body. That's why the 'actually' is in the title. It's really easy to understand what the heart does once you know about circulation, but Leonardo didn't. So he really was 'super confused'. Nowadays, people aren't confused, but they still don't actually see it working. I mean, you can see your arm working, and you can feel your biceps contracting and your forearm moving. But until I discovered this demonstration (removing the atria), educators and students had no opportunity to actually see the heart working. That's why there are so many animations on KZread, and why so many science lessons get students to make models of the heart. It's actually a new discovery that we are announcing here- a new way of demonstrating heart function in schools. Regards Ed Hui

Edmond Hui That's pretty cool actually. But looking through the comments I can see that I am not the only one with this opinion. The title is not good. The fact that you need to explain to me what you did shows that the title, and video, did NOT deliver that message at all, which means the video delivery is not good either. Don't get me wrong, it was a good video, as all these ted-ed videos are, but the message isn't clear. At no time did I think this was a new discovery and I didn't grasp that it was important. I had no idea that no one figured out you can't make it pump outside the body (which to me, is remarkable after all these years!). None of this was mentioned at all, so to me it just seemed like an overly long way of saying "look how simple the heart is!" That is why it was weird when you started going through the whole procedure.

You're right. It was exceptionally difficult to come up with a title and a script, and within TED-Ed's guidelines (how it fit with the other TED-Ed lessons) and the time limits. You'll also be amused to know that when I show this to doctors and surgeons, they are either in agreement that it's cool and wonderful that the thousands of anatomists and students who have looked at the heart also failed to discover that it would work when manually pumped; or they fail to see the significance at all- 'yes, but we already know how it works!' I was lucky that the peer reviewer at the journal where it was published was an experienced teacher, and her comment was that she couldn't understand how she could have taught the heart for decades and failed to find this technique herself! Personally my slant on this is that it proves that genuine scientific discovery (be it ever so marginally useful) is available to everyone. I will forever be amused that I found something that Leonardo could have but failed to find. He would have been greatly amused to see it pumping. I'm told by the keeper of the Queen's pictures that he is certain that if Leonardo knew of this technique, he would have recorded it.

love these videos!

Simple: Contraction of the muscle tissues of the heart. This contraction leads to the flow of blood around the body through the blood vessels.

I do believe that not only MD's and med students understand the moa of the heart, do not forget other courses and health care professionals.

The last line about the heart Racing when I catch the eye of the person u love ❤️made me realize I still haven't felt my heart😂

This helped me so much I learned new things from this video 🖤

it is interesting to know how the mechanism works and the number of beats the heart gives its lifetime, I did not expect 2 billion.

In the mid 1200s Ibn al-Nafis was the first to have a description of pulmonary circulation

Too much time is spent on unimportant chitchat. When it comes to the figure 8 animation, the really important point, the speed is unnecessarily too fast to easily follow without watching it over several times.

There is a context to everything. This is not standard practice turned into animation. It's a NEW technique. How often do you come across something that Leonardo studied, could have found, but missed? The figure 8 animation is not the important point. It's an illustration of the misconceptions that can occur when you learn about the heart from an anatomical label perspective, rather than a functional point of view. This technique is designed to introduce the heart from a directly practical, functional point of view. The important point is the invitation to get a real heart and look for yourself, to get a direct, tactile and visual understanding of it as a pump.

Hmm I wouldn't say this video is the best demonstration of how the heart works and pumps blood. you should just skip the history and dive into the physiology of the heart. I got a bit confused of why you think removing the atriums out of the picture would be easier for new medics to understand the concept of how the heart pumps blood.

If you had a demonstration of this with an actual heart, it would be less confusing than an animated one with eyes, legs and arms. I don't get it why that was even considered in the animation process.

Hi Natalie. Please understand that the point of the video is to invite you to do the demonstration yourself. If you are a medical student, I'll bet that this demonstration was not shown to you during your studies, because as far as I know, it was not known that it was actually possible. If you follow the simple instruction of removing the atria, you can work the ventricles and see the valves opening and closing directly, and not through some animation online. The video itself is not meant to show how the heart works- the animation is meant to be simplistic. But when you actually see it live, it's amazing. Hope you give it a go. Regards Ed Hui

Actually, the pumping function of the heart has been understood for a very long time. The connection between the arterial and venous systems through the capillary bed is the more recent discovery (Harvey - early 1600s). The video was only minimally informative.

muscle contractions in the heart, make the chambers "grow smaller", creating pressure that pushes blood to the ventricles/ out through the arteries.

@BiologyByteYoutube

7 жыл бұрын

A patch of muscle called SAnode initiates the process of contraction of the heart chambers.

If your wondering where the blood comes from is not the heart. Its the bone marrow. But why does the heart pump around blood? The heart pumps blood around the body, it contracts multiple times(faster if your use energy quickly, slowly if your sitting/sleeping) so it contracts when a load of fluid it gains pressure, then it gets blood into your organs for us to not die.

Excellent video!

ya know it's cool until you realize someone did this with a real, not-cartoony heart that changes a lot

Al- Nafis possibly. Galen definitely not. Da Vinci definitely confused. If you read what Da Vinci wrote around his wonderful heart drawings, he thought there was nowhere for the blood to go, so he was convinced there were holes in the septum between the ventricles, and / or back flow through the valves. If he had actually tried this technique he would never have thought that. Martin Clayton, keeper of the drawings in the Royal Collection, confirms that Da Vinci actually gave up anatomy after failing to figure out how it worked.

that was so cute! i wish they could do a video on heart defects or LTGVA.

Explain how it works then? It's a fairly complex type of pump

Hello- this is Ed Hui- the author of the scientific paper on which the animation is based. The purpose of the demonstration is to allow students to ACTUALLY WATCH the heart valves at work. As far as we know, that has never been done before in school, where the default activity is to cut open and label. Also, Galen and Da Vinci didn't get it. Galen especially caused centuries of misunderstanding, which meant Da Vinci was so confused he couldn't believe it was a pump even though he could see the parts acted as a pump. According to Martin Clayton, curator of the Da Vinci drawings in the Royal Collection, he was so confused by this- that the heart looked like a pump but there was apparently nowhere for the blood to go- that he gave up anatomy altogether. Even Harvey, who certainly did understand it was a pump, had some idea that it only worked when inside the animal. He literally cut open the chests of living dogs, to show blood spurting out of the aorta when he cut it. If only he found this technique, many dogs would have been saved from horrible deaths. Apologies to those of you who don't like the simplicity or length of the video- that's a TED limitation. But if you go to the TED-Ed site, you'll see a range of resources in the 'Dig Deeper' section that will show you the details of the demonstration. Regards, Ed

"Hui" - that's a very interesting surname when you know polish language...

Lets take a minute or two. Relax! Close your eyes and listen to the heartbeat. Think about the lessons you were just taught and admire the wonderfulness of the heart. Thanks it for keeping you alive. If you ever feel stressed, think about the organs in your body. They work so hard to miraculously keep you alive. Don't waste their effort days after days. Don't be ridiculous of thinking about killing yourself. Think about the wonderful things inside your body that God gave you. Don't suicide.
