Development and changes in the heart at birth: the interatrial wall/ septum (foramen ovalis) acts as a shunt for oxygenated blood (from placenta) in the right atrium to. It shoots the blood straight into the left atrium which passes it directly to the systemic circulation without going to the lungs: ra --> la --> lv --> aorta.
