As a result, two tightly regulated compensatory mechanisms are activated (Fig 1): Sympathetic compensatory mechanism – the baroreceptors sense a decrease in blood pressure (BP),

  Understanding right sided failure is similar to that of the left side. The only differences being in knowing the origins and destinations of blood passing through the right heart. Keep in mind that blood returning to the right heart comes from systemic circulation and is to be pumped to the lungs. Consequently, anything that impairs blood

  The first type of heart failure is Left-Sided Heart failure where the left ventricle gets larger and weaker which does not allow it to get a strong contraction to push blood to vital organs. Left-sided heart failure can actually be divided into two different types of heart failure, one is called left-sided systolic failure and the other is

  Heart failure is a condition in which the heart muscle is unable to pump enough blood through the heart to meet the body’s needs for blood and oxygen. Types of Heart Failure Left-sided: The most common form of heart failure, it involves a decreased ability of the left ventricle to effectively pump blood out to the body.
