Chronic congestive heart failure brings more pain and slow death. In this condition, the weakened heart is unable to pump out all the blood inside it. Later, there is leakage through small blood vessels as the blood starts backing up into the abdomen, liver, lungs, and lower body to worsen the health of patients.
Congestive heart failure occurs for left-sided heart failure or right-sided heart failure though it can also co-occur for both sides. Besides, congestive heart failure can be diastolic or systolic.
The most common type of heart failure is left-sided heart failure. There is a left heart ventricle located at the bottom of the left side of your heart. Its responsibility is to supply oxygen-rich blood to various parts of your body. But when this left ventricle does not pump efficiently, it causes left-sided heart failure — eventually breaking the flow of oxygen-rich blood to your body, instead of backing up fluid to create short breathiness.
The right heart ventricle functions to collect oxygen by pumping blood to your lungs. When the right side of your heart fails to perform its function, it can result in right-sided heart failure. This problem is usually triggered by left-sided heart failure by accumulating blood in the lungs to cause trouble in the working of the right ventricle. Besides, right-sided heart failure can also be a consequence of lung disease.
When your heart muscle transforms into stiffer than usual, it can result in diastolic heart failure. This stiffness, perhaps a result of heart disease, makes it difficult for your heart to fill up blood to cause diastolic dysfunctioning: Resulting in reducing the flow of blood to the rest of the body organs. Women are more prone to this kind of heart failure than men. It can occur on the right or left side or both sides.
The condition when the heart muscle loses its ability to contract leads to Systolic heart failure. Our heart must contract to pump precious oxygen blood throughout the body. But when your heart is enlarged and weak, it can render systolic dysfunctioning. Generally, men suffer from this problem than women. Same as diastolic, systolic heart failure can occur on the right or left side or both sides.
