  • Front
  • Back
Right or left? Defined as the inability of the heart to generate an adequate cardiac output to perfuse vital tissues.
left/systolic
Right or left? Caused by diffuse hypoxic pulmonary disease ie COPD, CF.
right
Right or left? Contractility is reduced.
left
Right or left? Renal perfusion diminishes
left
Right or left? Cycle of ↓ contractility, ↑ preload and ↑ afterload causes progressive worsening
left
Right or left? S&S are the result of pulmonary vascular congestion and inadequate perfusion of the systemic circulation.
left
Right or left? Dyspnea, orthopnea, cough of frothy sputum, fatigue, decreased urine output and edema.
left
Right or left? Rise in systemic venous circulation
right
Right or left? Peripheral edema and hepatosplenomegaly.
right
Right or left? Can result from increase in left ventricular filling pressure reflected back into pulmonary circulation. As pressure rises, resistance to rt ventricular emptying increases.
right
Right or left? Can occur singly or along w/ systolic heart failure.
left
Right or left? Defines as pulmonary congestion despite a normal stroke volume and cardiac output.
left
Right or left? Accounts for 40-50% of this side heart failure.
left
Right or left? Results from decreased compliance of ventricle and abnormal relaxation.
left
Right or left? Pressure is reflected back into pulmonary circulatin and results in pulmonary edema.
left
Right or left? Cause is hypertension induced myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial ischemia.
left
Right or left?S&S: dyspnea on exertion, fatigue, pulmonary edema (crackles).
left
Right or left?Ventricular remodeling results in hypertrophy
left
Right or left? Stroke volume falls, dilation and increase in preload.
left
Right or left?Increased afterload results from increased peripheral vascular resistance.
left
Right or left? More common in women
left
Right or left? Known as heart failure w/ preserved systolic function.
left
