Now, following the above steps: 1  The parent hydrocarbon chain has 23 carbons. It is called tricosa-. 2  The functional groups with the highest precedence are the two ketone groups. The groups are on carbon atoms 3 and 9. 3  The side chains are: an ethyl- at carbon 4, an ethyl- at carbon 8, and a butyl- at carbon 12.
1 doctor agreed: 1  AORTIC REGURGITATION: Aortic regurgitation is reflux of blood through an incompetent aortic valve into the left ventricle during ventricular diastole (relaxation). During ventricular systole (contraction), blood is pumped from the left ventricle into the aorta. Because of a leaky aortic valve, the pumped blood returns to the left ventricle.
Aortic regurgitation can eventually lead to heart failure. Mitral regurgitation may also require a valve replacement. In this condition, the mitral valve allows oxygenated blood to flow backwards into the lungs instead of continuing through the heart as it should. People with this condition may experience shortness of breath, irregular heartbeats and chest pain.
