Contains a large image of a normal heart for easy comparison with these important cardiac conditions. Visually and textually describes heart murmurs, cardiac arrhythmias, congenital heart defects, acquired heart defects and high cholesterol & its consequences. Specifically:

Defines heart murmurs and their causes. Shows coarctation of the aorta, ventricular septal defect and mitral valve prolapse.

Describes common cardiac arrhymias (abnormal heart rates & rhythms) – tachycardia, bradycardia, atrial fibrillation and ventricular arrythmias. Shows the sites of common cardiac arrhythmias by section of the heart: sinus node, ventricular, atrial and junctional arrhythnmas, as well as atrioventricular (AV) blocks.

Defines and shows the following common congenital (present at birth) defects: patent ductus arteriosus, atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect.

Textually and visually shows acquired heart defects— myocarditis, rheumatic heart disease, cardiomyopathy and Kawaski’s disease.

Describes high cholesterol, coronary heart disease (CAD) and hypertension (high blood pressure). Shows how cholesterol is transported in the blood, the structure of a typical lipoprotein (which carries the cholesterol throughout the body), and the consequence of high cholesterol – atherosclerosis – plaque clogged arteries.

Size is 20" W by 26" H.

About our chart types:
UNMOUNTED - Printed on high-quality, heavy paper. Get an unmounted chart if you are going to frame it, or if you just want to tape or tack it up on a wall. Our human anatomical charts measure 20”W x 26”H. (Note: Unmounted charts cannot be displayed on the chart stands).

FLEXIBLE LAMINATION - Flexible plastic 1.5 mil lamination with metal eyelets in each top corner for convenient wall hanging or for use with chart stands (shown below); markable (write-on/wipe-off). If you are going to put the chart on an office or classroom wall, this will hang nicely without curling at the edges. Also, the chart will easily roll up, if you want to carry it with you. Our most popular mounting. Our human anatomical charts measure 20”W x 26”H.

STYRENE PLASTIC - Printed directly onto styrene, this durable plastic chart is approximately 1/16” thick and has metal eyelets in top corners for convenient wall hanging; markable (write-on/wipe-off). Styrene charts are UV coated, latex-free and feature bold and bright colors. The chart will remain upright on an easel for presentations and will stand up to heavy use in the office or classroom. Charts can be displayed with the Chart Merchandising Display and the chart stands. Our human anatomical charts measure 19 3/4”W x 26”H.
