occurs as a result of the ventricles heart failure
inability to fill or pump effectively.
causes of heart failure CAD, MI, cardiomyopathy, valvular diseases, HTN,
any cardiac ischemia.
, heart failure pathophysiology left and right side of heart, must work together to
ensure equal amts of blood entering and leaving the
heart.
in HF, the amount of blood returned to heart
becomes more than either ventricle can handle.
Heart loses ability to pump effectively.
typically weakens first left sided heart failure.
classifications of HF left sided HF.

force that must be generated by left afterload
ventricle in order to effect blood
through aortic valve into the aorta
pressure within arteries and aorta Peripheral vascular resistance
What does HTN do to PVR? increases PVR.
what makes left ventricle work increased pressure.
