Q

R / L Heart Failure & Forward / Backward effect:

Pulmonary edema

A

Left Heart Failure

Forward Effects of Left H.F.

  • Fatigue
  • Weakness
  • Poor activity tolerance (muscles aren’t getting enough oxygenated blood)
  • Sympathetic stimulation kicks in to increase cardiac output.
  • Diaphoresis
  • Cardiogenic shock
    • If cardiac output drop is very severe (past heart failure), you go into cardiogenic shock (perfusion cannot occur causing major organs to fail).

Backward Effects of Left H.F.

  • Blood backs up in the lungs
    • Pulmonary edema (fluid in alveoli)
    • No surface area available for oxygenation
    • Hypoxia due to pulmonary edema
      • Hear crackles
    • Wet sounding cough
    • Orthopnea (trouble breathing when you lie down because gravity is not preventing massive amounts of blood returning to the heart)

Q

R / L Heart Failure & Forward / Backward effect:

Blood backs up in venous system.

A

Right Heart Failure

Forward Effects of Right H.F.

  • Hypoxia due to blood not pumping to lungs and getting oxygenated.
  • Blood backs up in venous system.
  • Distended neck veins (supposed to be flat).

Backward Effects of Right H.F.

  • Peripheral edema / Dependant edema
    • Below the level of the heart
    • Usually legs
    • Working against gravity
  • Abdominal organs become congested/enlarged.
    • Spleen becomes enlarged, liver becomes enlarged (hepatomegaly), GI tract becomes enlarged
  • Ascites (fluid leaks out of veins into peritoneal space).
  • Increased weight (weight gain)
