Hand-finger model of the human heart – a useful educational device for understanding basic position of the cardiac chambers

Abstract

Teaching heart anatomy for the medical students is a difficult task even for the most experienced professors. A practical approach of teaching complicated structure of the cardiac chambers and their space relations is presented here. It is based on a simple and easily understandable hand-finger model of the human heart showing in once the position of the cardiac chambers and the respective heart valves.
