Angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are a ANS: 3
central part of the treatment of heart failure (HF)
because they have more than one action to address the
pathological changes in this disorder. Which of the
following pathological changes that take place in HF is
NOT addressed by ACE inhibitors?

1. Changes in the structure of the left ventricle so that it
dilates, hypertrophies, and uses energy less efficiently
2. Reduced formation of cross-bridges so that
contractile force decreases
3. Activation of the sympathetic nervous system that
increases heart rate and preload
4. Decreased renal blood flow that decreases oxygen
supply to the kidneys

One of the three types of HF involves systolic ANS: 1
dysfunction. Potential causes of this most common form
of HF include:

1. Myocardial ischemia and injury secondary to
myocardial infarction (MI)
2. Inadequate relaxation and loss of muscle fiber
secondary to valvular dysfunction
3. Increased demands of the heart beyond its ability to
adapt secondary to anemia
4. Slower filling rate and elevated systolic pressures
secondary to uncontrolled hypertension
