Case history A 70 years old lady presented with the complaint of shortness of breath for the last 6 months. This complain has been progressive . Initially breathlessness was on exertion only but now she feels breathless on lying in bed without three pillows . She also wakes up from sleep a number of times at night.
She lives on second floor and has to climb a flight of 10 stairs . Recently she has started to experience chest discomfort along with breathlessness.

Heart failure Heart failure is a complex syndrome resulting from structural or functional
cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of heart to act as a pump to support physiologic circulation and is characterized by symptoms such as breathlessness and fatigue and signs of fluid retention.
Symptoms;
left ventricular failure (LVF) may result in dyspnea ,orthopnea , paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea , nocturnal cough or fatigue.
Signs; Hypotension
Tachycardia
Third heart sound
Edema
Bibasal crepitations/crackles

NYHA classification of heart failure
Class 1 – no limitationsClass 2 – slight limitation of physical
activityClass 3 – marked limitation of physical
activityClass 4 – symptoms at rest

Definitions Breathlessness/dyspnea;
Undue awareness of breathing . It is normal with strenuous physical exercise.
Hypoapnea;
Shallow breathing or low respiratory rate. Orthopnea;
Breathlessness on lying flat. Paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea;
Breathlessness that wakes up the patient from sleep.
Tachypnea;
Increased rate of breathing. Hyperventilation;
Inappropriate overbreathing
