III. Introduction
Heart failure the inability or failure of the heart to adequately meet the needs of organs and tissues for oxygen and nutrients. This
decrease in cardiac output, the amount of blood that the heart pumps, is not adequate to circulate the blood returning to the heart from the
body and lungs, causing fluid (mainly water) to leak from capillary blood vessels. This leads to the symptoms that may include shortness
of breath, weakness, and swelling
The heart itself is made up of 4 chambers, 2 atria and 2 ventricles. De-oxygenated blood returns to the right side of the heart via
the venous circulation. It is pumped into the right ventricle and then to the lungs where carbon dioxide is released and oxygen is absorbed.
The oxygenated blood then travels back to the left side of the heart into the left atria, then into the left ventricle from where it is pumped
into the aorta and arterial circulation.
