Introduction
In human embryos the heart begins to beat at about 22-23 days, with blood flow beginning in the 4th week. The heart is therefore one of the earliest differentiating and functioning organs.
The best place for students to start is the Heart Tutorial.
The heart begins very early in mesoderm within the trilaminar embryonic disc. The heart forms initially in the embryonic disc as a simple paired tube inside the forming pericardial cavity, which when the disc folds, gets carried into the correct anatomical position in the chest cavity.
A key aspect of heart development is the septation of the heart into separate chambers. As the embryonic/fetal circulation is different to the neonatal circulation (lung/pulmonary activation), several defects of heart septation may only become apparent on this transition. One septal "defect" occurs in us all, the foramen ovale (between the 2 atria) which in general closes in the neonate over time.
Embryonic Heart Rate (EHR), early in development the heart starts to spontaneously beat and a recent study by Wisser and Dirschedl in dated human embryos showed an increase up to 63 postmenstrual days or 22 mm greatest length. Thereafter a steady decrease of EHR was noted. Maximal EHR is reached when morphological development of the embryonic heart is completed.
The best place for students to start is the Heart Tutorial.

Animations are modified and converted from a historic film (circa 1960's, copyright unknown) demonstrating aspects of human heart development.
The sound quality is quite poor and some of the information is now out of date, most general concepts are still correct. Please note the relatively large size (Mb) of each excerpt will effect download and viewing. March 2013

Human Development Timecourse
- Cardiogenic region - in splanchnic mesenchyme of prechordal plate region
- Week 2 pair of thin-walled tubes
- Week 3 tubes fused, truncus arteriosus outflow, heart contracting
- Week 4 heart tube continues to elongate, curving to form S shape
- Week 5 Septation starts, atrial and ventricular
- Septation continues, atrial septa remains open, foramen ovale
- Week 40 At birth pressure difference closes foramen ovale leaving a fossa ovalis

Heart Layers
- pericardium - covers the heart, formed by 3 layers consisting of a fibrous pericardium and a double layered serous pericardium (parietal layer and visceral epicardium layer).
- myocardium - muscular wall of the heart, thickest layer formed by spirally arranged cardiac muscle cells.
- endocardium - lines the heart, epithelial tissue lining the inner surface of heart chambers and valves.
Heart Volume
Week* | Heart Volume (ml) | Lung Volume (ml) |
10 | 0.6 | 1.6 |
18 | 4.3 | 10.9 |
30 | 26.6 | 49.3 |
* Table data is "embryonic age" while original reference used "gestational age" (from LMP)(Data: Peralta CF, Cavoretto P, Csapo B, Falcon O, Nicolaides KH. Lung and heart volumes by three-dimensional ultrasound in normal fetuses at 12-32 weeks' gestation. Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol. 2006 Feb;27(2):128-33.)
Stroke Volume
Week* | Left Stroke Volume (ml) | Right Stroke Volume (ml) | Cardiac Output L/R (ml/min) |
10 | 0.02 | 0.01 | 2.39 / 1.8 |
18 | 0.32 | 0.30 | 43.46 / 46.72 |
32 | 2.07 | 2.67 | 284.71 / 365.99 |
* Table data is "embryonic age" while original reference used "gestational age" (from LMP). The stroke volume (SV) can be calculated from ultrasound measurement of end diastole volume (EDV) minus end systole volume (ESV); (SV = EDV - ESV).

Terms
- fibrous trigone - (trigonum fibrosum) term describing the dense connective tissue between the aortic ring and the atrioventricular ring and has a left and right component. The right fibrous trigone (trigonum fibrosum dextrum) lies between the aortic ring and the right atrioventricular ring. The left fibrous trigone (trigonum fibrosum sinistrum) lies between the aortic ring and the left atrioventricular ring.
