What does ATRIAL mean in Scrabble?
adjective
medical
Relating to an atrium, especially one of the two upper compartments of the heart that receive blood before it passes to the ventricles.
Atrial is used mainly in medicine to describe conditions, structures, and processes connected with the heart's atria, as in atrial fibrillation, a common irregular heart rhythm that begins in these upper compartments. The word distinguishes such conditions from ventricular ones, which involve the heart's larger, lower pumping compartments instead. Outside medicine, atrium and its related forms can also describe an open central hall in architecture, though atrial itself is used almost exclusively in the anatomical, heart-related sense.
