HFrEF
-
-
pathophysiology
-
-
weakened heart muscle cannot generate enough force to eject an adequate amount of blood from the ventricle leading to a buildup of blood in the lungs and veins
-
Definition: occurs when heart does not contact effectively and less blood is pumped out of ventricles
-
comparison
aspect
-
common causes
pres
CAD, heart attack, cardiomyopathy
red
hypertension, aging, diabetes, obesity
-
primary treatments
red
medications to improve heart contraction and reduce workload, ICDs and CRT
pres
control blood pressure and manage fluid, lifestyle changes
-
prognosis
red
worse prognoiss, higher mortality
-
HFpEF
-
pathophysiology
-
stiff, doesn't relax properly during filling
impaired relaxation reduces hearts ability to fill with blood between heartbeats leading to increased pressure in the ventricles and atria and lungs and veins
-
defintion: occurs when heart muscle contracts normal but the ventricles do not relax properly leading to inadequate filling with blood
