Cardiac failure - right heart failure image
signs and symptoms
irregular heart beat
dyspnoea
edema in legs
fatigue
enlarge liver
weight gain
dizziness
pathophysiology
increased water reabsorption
decreased renal perfussion
low- oxygenated blood
decreased cardiac output
diet
fruits and vegetables
avoid bacon, sausage
low salt diet
fresh fruits, lean meat, fish and poultry
nursing management
reduce edema by promoting urination
reduce rapid heart rate
reduce elevated blood pressure
prevent blood clots open narrowed vessels
Inspect the skin for mottling.
Low cardiac output can results in decreased perfusion to the skin of the extremities
Monitor urine output, noting decreasing output and concentrated urine.
diagnosis
CT Scan
stress test
X-Ray , collect image of the heart
electrocardiogram
treatment
reduce rapid heart rate
reduces cardiac workload and circulatory volumes
vasodilation reduce pheripheral resistance
diuretics
complications
heart failure
heart dysrhythmia
kidney failure
liver damage
Definition
right-sided heart failure, the heart's right ventricle is too weak to pump enough blood to the lungs.
