Medical Embryology - Development of the Heart - Part One

Part one covers the very early development of the human heart. We go from the flat trilaminar stage to the looped heart and its five regions. Part two will then take us from this stage to the four-chambered heart we know so well. I hope you enjoy it. I'm sorry about the discrepancy in volume between the live and (sort of) animated portions - I'll try to prevent that problem next time.

I dont understand why this video only has 1.7K likes. Possibly the best explanation on Heart embryology online.

Hey guys -- Dr. Ward IS a professor at my school. Be jealous. He IS this good in person, too.

[@chunkymonkey2782]

what school? wish he was at mine :(

[@94rome]

[@bupechikumbi3082]

Julie 😂

[@inneralpha]

Excellent. I'm happy to learn from him.

[@A1shreyasb]

This is absolutely the best general resource on cardiac embryology I've found! Thank you so much!

[@RhyanandCaden]

Watching this before starting back to school and starting heart! Thank you Dr. Ward for always being an awesome lifesaver!:)

[@lo8013]

This was absolutely stellar, sir. Thank you! I have been over this so many times, and now in prep for my neuroanatomy exam I'm going over it again and I've never understood the formation of the heart like I do now after seeing this. Thank you so much!

[@lori6154]

This is the best video on the embryology of the heart I've seen! It's so easy to understand, eventhough I'm not a native speaker! Thank you so much!

[@OwaisKhanPT]

This is incredibly well explained! Brilliant job!

[@danzatiums1424]

Thank you so much. You made an extremely difficult topic amazingly simple.

[@Umahdibro]

Dr. Ward, you are godly.

[@parvathareddychandrahasa2957]

Best embryology video I have ever seen

[@omarmourad7909]

You're simply amazing, I wish my instructor was as half as good as you!

[@zainabb.2792]

I really can't thank you enough. Subscribed!!

[@zipperears88]

I was hoping you would do a video on the embryology of the heart after watching your early embryology video last year! You've helped me so much, you don't even know!! Thank you! You're an amazing teacher :D

[@jayghetiya5494]

Excellent explanation !! Hats off . Didn't know the concept of cardiac jelly till now !

[@m_sata]

Best video about this topic! I'm so lucky I found your video :) Thank you professor.

[@chrisbill2192]

prachtig ! heel erg bedankt

[@MrSuperAlive]

I found really usefull this video. Thanks!!!

[@laurenharrison4520]

This is such a great video! I'm revising for my 1st Year Medical exams in the UK and this has helped so much - I'm about to watch Part 2. Thank you! :-D

[@omarmourad7909]

+Lauren Harrison you take embryology of the heart in the first year? Thats harsh, anyways good luck

[@laurenharrison4520]

+omar mourad yes we do - this video is more advanced I would say but I never know how much I need to know, haha! thank you Omar :-D

[@omarmourad7909]

haha indeed i wish my embryology instructor was as good as this guy :(

[@ikramullah5442]

@Lauren Harrison in Afghanistan we also take embryology of heart in first year of medical school but teachers are not so good 😢

[@chimifezue1622]

God bless you absolute legend

[@MrEman4740]

Thank you...so helpful!

[@maedehbarahimi8620]

[@jennyshentmu1299]

Thanks a lot for this clear-explained video!! I've followed your videos for a while. However, i think it would be better if there's a subtitle for foreign student to understand :) Anyway, you really helps me a lot!! thx!!

[@ivnalima3859]

ur the greatest

[@aliceroxcullen98]

Hi Dr Ward I was wondering if you would maybe be able to upload the pictures you use in your videos to a folder or something? Im a visual learner and a lot of the embryology books don't have clear concise pictures like the ones you use so I think it would be great if you could upload them so i could print and make notes on them.

[@isadoracoms]

I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING NOW. I cant believe it. I just cant. Thank you very much!!! Im from Brazil and I am so glad. I read about this topics many times in great student books like Moore and Larsen and didnt understand well. But now I do. Thank you very VERY much.

[@jerejh3]

may i ask at this embryological stage do the chambers contract in a peristalsis-like fashion ie. bulbus cordis contracts only after the primordial ventricle finishes its contraction? so essentially there are 3 pumping chambers here (primordial atrium, ventricle and the bulbus cordis)? does the aortic sac contract too? Awesome video btw!!!

[@Bluecoconut182]

Have a question regarding development of pulmonary veins - no where in table @16:50 does it state embryo/adult structure, also was very vague in video no.2. So would like to know if there is on origin/stage of development for pulmonary veins?

[@lauramed6654]

I love that your skeleton has steampunk glasses

[@DrSagan]

at @9:00 is it endocardial tube or dorsal aorta which is gonna fuse ...

[@pwmlam]

End very useful

[@wenceshen]

few years before going to lecturio 👍

[@faddys1234]

is blood flowing left to right at the end of this video?

[@whitedoc1031]

👍 ur awesome

[@shivachandar4094]

I have a question. Would cases of anencephaly have problems with their pericardial cavity, since the brain causes the coelom to shift anteriorly?

[@ClinicalAnatomyExplained]

Good question and I'm not actually sure. The head and face forms fairly normally in anencephally (not totally normally obviously, but surprisingly close to the norm) so the shift inferiorly probably proceeds normally for the heart. I'll check to see if I find out any additional information!

[@ivnalima3859]

Thank you so much for this im going to make a bible out of it

[@TvvoTr3es]

kiiiiiiinnng

[@lilyygdgdgd8919]

i love you

[@hiqwerty7747]

I thought embryonic folding is completed around day 25, not day 22.

[@charantej7135]

Sir upload on development of reproductive system

[@charantej7135]

Upload More

[@mananchawda]

i love how the skeleton in the background s wearing glasses XDXDXDXD

[@imperiussss]

Is the segmentation model of the heart not outdated? Becouse here in Europe we learn heart embryology by the ''balooning model''. Maybe you could also make a video by that model. Thanks anyway for the great video. circres.ahajournals.org/content/91/2/93.full

[@Dr_Sri_Harsha_Guthikonda]

audio is...inaudible....

[@AIIMSinVeins]

Hours of reading are nothing compared to this 22-minute video.

[@maxpower8171]

pesky embryology

[@lori6154]

This is the best video on embryology of the heart I've seen! It's so easy to understand, eventhough I'm not a native speaker! Thank you so much!
