Heart valves mnemonic: order in circuit

USMLE/NCLEX heart valves mnemonic: order in circuit.

TRI before you BI:

Tricuspid valve is located in left right heart and Bicuspid valve is located in right left heart. Blood flows through the tricuspid before bicuspid.

Alternative version:

First learn a Tricycle, then learn a Bicycle:

Flow through Tricuspid first, then Bicuspid.
