cardiac catheterization
The heart chambers are called atria and ventricles. Arteries and veins are blood vessels.
When the heart chambers are contracting at their maximum force to push blood out of the heart it's called systole.
Because they pump the blood out of the heart
The heart chambers are not called arteries and veins. Heart chambers are atria and ventricles.
The two upper chambers in your heart are called the atria. One on its own is an atrium. This comes from the Latin word for an open entrance area in a house, because the atria are where the blood enters the heart after returning from either the body or the lungs.The right atrium receives blood from the body, and pumps it through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. The left atrium receives blood from the lungs via the pulmonary veins, and pumps it through the bicuspid valve into the left atrium.The atria have thinner walls than the ventricles, since they have to pump the blood a shorter distance than the ventricles.

The heart is divided by a partition or septum into two halves. The halves are in turn divided into chambers. The upper two chambers of the heart are called atria and the lower two chambers are called ventricles. The atria receive blood returning to the heart from the body and the ventricles pump blood from the heart to the body. Valves allow blood to flow in one direction between the chambers of the heart.
Because they pump the blood out of the heart
The two upper chambers of the heart that collects blood are known as atria.
The heart has 4 chambers. The "collecting chamber of the heart", or the atria , is the two chambers that are located above the other two chambers. It carries the responsibility in helping to pump the blood out of the chambers and making sure no blood pumps back in.
Hollow areas in the heart that receive incoming blood from the lungs and ship it out again are called chambers. The human heart has four chambers.
The pumps inside the heart are four chambers that work together to pump blood to your lungs and your body. There are two upper chambers called atria and two lower larger chambers called ventricles.
Atria. (Singular: atrium)
The ventricles are the lower chambers of the heart. The atria are the upper chambers.
Atria receive blood into the heart and ventricles "discharge" it from the heart
The heart has two upper chambers. One of which being the right atrium which pumps deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle, and the other being the left atrium which pumps oxygenated blood to the left ventricle.
