Congestive Heart Failure
- 
 
Left Sided
Causes
- 
 
- 
 
- 
 
Primary Myocardial Disease (Cardiomyopathy, Myocarditis)
 
 
- 
 
- 
 
 
Right Sided
- 
 
- 
 
Pathogenesis
Disease Right Ventricle --> Increase Burden on Right Side --> Hypertrophy & Dilation --> Right-Sided HF
 
Left-Sided HF/Pulmonary Disease -> Pulmonary Hypertension --> Increase Burden --> Hypertrophy --> Right-Sided HF
 
 
 
Treatment
Positive Inotropic
Cardiac Glycosides
- 
 
MOA
Irreversible Inhibition Na+/K+ ATPase --> Increase Intracellular Na+ --> Reduce Transmembrane Potential --> Increase Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger --> Increase Intracellular Ca2+ --> Increase Contraction
 
 
Effects
Cardiac - Positive Inotropic, Bathmotropic
 
Others - Inhibit SAS, RAS & Enhance Parasympathetic Activity
