When In a normally functioning heart, four valves regulate blood flow so that blood travels through the heart in one direction and at the right rate.

A person with a faulty heart valve may experience fatigue, chest pain, or other symptoms â or no symptoms at all. To better understand the function of heart valves, it can first help to visualize the heart. The heart is divided into four chambers, the left atrium and ventricle and the right atrium and ventricle. A wall called the septum divides the two sides of the heart. When blood returns to the heart from the body, it fills the right atrium.
