This in-depth guide covers the management and nursing interventions for heart failure, including both left-sided and right-sided heart failure. It explains pathophysiology, clinical signs (e.g., pulmonary edema, peripheral edema), diagnostic tests, medication classes (diuretics, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers), dietary and fluid restrictions, and patient education. Nursing priorities such as monitoring weight, oxygenation, fluid balance, and promoting activity tolerance are highlighted. Perfect for NCLEX, med-surg exams, and cardiac care rotations.
