Heart failure
Causes
coronary heart disease
heart inflammation
high blood pressure,
cardiomyopathy
Pharmacology
ACE Inhibitors (captopril, lisinopril)
Diuretics (Furosemide)
Vasodilators (Hydralazine)
Digoxin (Cardiac glucoside)
Complications
Renal failure
Liver dysfunction
extreme weight loss
Electrolyte disturbance
Types
Left-sided heart failure
Systolic failure
The left ventricle loses its ability to contract normally
Diastolic failure
The left ventricle loses its ability to relax normally because the muscle has become stiff.
Right-sided heart failure
The heart's right ventricle is too weak to pump enough blood
Biventricular heart failure
Both left-sided and right-sided heart failure
Risk factors
High blood pressure
diabetes
obesity
Clinical Presentation
Dyspnea
Orthopnea
Cough
Lifestyle management
Weight management
Exercise
Restricting sodium
Surgical Management Of Heart Failure
Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
section of healthy blood vessel is grafted
Heart transplants
a patient’s heart is removed and replaced with a healthy heart from a deceased donor
Surgical ventricular reconstruction (SVR)
Left ventricular reconstruction

a sensation of running out of the air and of not being able to breathe fast enough or deeply enough
Orthopnea
