Left Sided Heart Failure
Right Sided Heart Failure

17
Q

The left ventricle is not pumping blood normally away from the lungs.

A

Left Sided Heart Failure

18
Q

The heart right ventricle is too weak to pump blood towards the lungs.

A

Right Sided Heart Failure

19
Q

Right Sided Heart Failure result in what?

A

• Swelling of the heart & lungs (all over the body)
• Shortness of breath

20
Q

Left ventricle of the heart no longer pumps enough around the body, then blood builds up in the pulmonary veins or the blood vessels that carry the blood away from the lungs.
