– Approximately 30-40% of patients with CHF are hospitalized each year. Leading diagnosis-related group over 65. The 5 year mortality after Dx was reported as 60% in men and 45% in women in 1971. In 1991, data from the Farmington heart study showed the 5 year mortality rate remaining unchanged, with a median survival of 3.2 years for men, and 5.4 years for women, post dx.
– The most common cause of death is progressive heart failure, but sudden death may account for up to 45% of all deaths.
– Patients with coexisting IDDM have a significantly higher mortality rate.

– Effects an estimated 4.9 million Americans
– 1% of age 50-59– 10% age over 80 89
years– In the UK most
patients admitted to hospital with heart failure are >70 years and remain hospitalised for a week or more.

– Heart failure describes the clinical syndrome that develops when the heart can not maintain an adequate cardiac output,or can do so only at the at the exposure of an elevated filling pressure.
– In mild to moderate form of heart failure ,cardiac output is adequate at rest and only becomes inadequate when the metabolic demand increases during exercise or some other forms of stress
![Page 5: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
♦ Summarized as an imbalance in Starlings forces or an imbalance in the degree of end-diastolic fiber stretch proportional to the systolic mechanical work expended in the ensuing contraction.
♦ Or basically like a rubber band, the more it is stretched, the greater the releasing velocity.
![Page 6: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
– Under normal circumstances, when fluid is transferred into the lung interstitium with increased lymphatic flow, no increase in interstitial volume occurs.
– However, when the capacity of the lymphatic drainage is exceeded, liquid accumulates in the interstitial spaces surrounding the bronchioles and lung vasculature, this creating CHF.
– When increased fluid and pressure cause tracking into the interstitial space around the alveoli and disruption of alveolar membrane junctions, fluid floods the alveoli and leads to pulmonary edema

– Coronary artery disease--chronic
– HTN--both– Valvular heart disease
(especially aorta and mitral disease)--chronic
– Inc metabolic demand– ASD,VSD
– Dysrhythmias--acute
– Diabetes—chronic
![Page 8: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
– Preload—• The amount of blood the
heart must pump with each beat
• Determined by:– Venous return to heart– Accompanying stretch
of the muscle fibers
• Increasing preload increase stroke volume in normal heart
• Increasing preload impaired heart decreased SV. Blood is trapped chamber enlargement
– Afterload—• The pressure that must be
overcome for the heart to pump blood into the arterial system.
• Dependent on the systemic vascular resistance
• With increased afterload, the heart muscles must work harder to overcome the constricted vascular bed chamber enlargement
• Increasing the afterload will eventually decrease the cardiac output.
![Page 9: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
– When cholesterol and fatty deposits build up in the heart’s arteries, less blood reaches the heart muscle. This damages the muscle, and the healthy heart tissue that remains has to work harder
![Page 10: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
– Uncontrolled HTN doubles the chances of failure
– With HTN, the chambers of the heart enlarge and weaken.
![Page 11: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
– Can result from disease, infection, or be congenital
– Don’t open and/or close completely increased workload failure
![Page 12: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
– Tachycardias decreased diastolic filling time decreased SV.
– Atrial dysrhythmias as much as 30% reduction in stroke volume
![Page 13: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
– The ischemic tissue is basically taken out of the equation, leaving a portion of the heart to do the work of the entire heart decreased SV CHF.
![Page 14: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Types of Rhythms Associated with CHF
![Page 16: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
– Left Ventricular Failure with Pulmonary Edema
– Right Ventricular Failure
![Page 17: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The smooth, glistening pleural surface of a lung is shown here. This patient had marked pulmonary edema, which increased the fluid in the lymphatics that run between lung lobules. Thus, the lung lobules are outlined in white.
![Page 18: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
– Occurs when the left ventricle fails as an effective forward pump
back pressure of blood into the pulmonary circulation
pulmonary edema– Cannot eject all of the
blood delivered from the right heart.
– Left atrial pressure rises increased pressure in the pulmonary veins and capillaries
– When pressure becomes to high, the fluid portion of the blood is forced into the alveoli.
decreased oxygenation capacity of the lungs
– AMI common with LVF, suspect
![Page 19: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
– Severe resp. distress– • Evidenced by
orthopnea, dyspnea
• Hx of paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.
– Severe apprehension, agitation, confusion—
• Resulting from hypoxia
– Cyanosis—
– Diaphoresis—• Results from
sympathetic stimulation
– Pulmonary congestion• Often present• Rales—especially at the
bases.• Rhonchi—associated
with fluid in the larger airways indicative of severe failure
• Wheezes—response to airway spasm
![Page 20: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
– Jugular Venous Distention—not directly related to LVF.
• Comes from back pressure building from right heart into venous circulation
– Vital Signs—• Significant increase in
sympathetic discharge to compensate.
• BP—elevated• Pulse rate—elevated to
compensate for decreased stroke volume.
• Respirations—rapid and labored
![Page 21: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
– LOC—• may vary.• Depends on the level of hypoxia
– Chest Pain• May in the presence of MI• Can be masked by the RDS.

♦ REMEMBER LEFT VENTRICULAR FAILURE IS A TRUE LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCY
![Page 23: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
– Etiology—• Acute MI—
– Inferior MI
• Pulmonary disease – COPD, fibrosis, HTN
• Cardiac disease involving the left or both ventricles
• Results from LVF
– Pathophysiology—• Decreased right-sided
cardiac output or increased pulmonary vascular resistance increased right vent. Pressures.
• As pressures rise, this increased pressure in the right atrium and venous system
• Higher right atrium pressures JVP
![Page 24: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
– In the peripheral veins, pressures rise and the capillary pressures increase, hydrostatic pressure exceeds that of interstitial pressure
– Fluid leaks from the capillaries into the surrounding tissues causing peripheral edema
– Lungs are clear due to left ventricular pressures are normal
![Page 25: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

– Stimulated by decreased perfusion secretion of hormones
• Epi—– Increases contractility
– Increases rate and pressure
– Vasoconstriction SVR
• Vasopressin—– Pituitary gland
– Mild vasoconstriction, renal water retention
![Page 28: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
– Decreased renal blood flow secondary to low cardiac output triggers renin secretion by the kidneys
• Aldosterone is released increase in Na+ retention water retention
• Preload increases
• Worsening failure
![Page 29: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
– Long term compensatory mechanism– Increases in size due to increase in work load ie
skeletal muscle

![Page 37: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
– Digoxin– Lanoxin
♦ Increases the contractility of the heart increasing the cardiac output
![Page 38: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
– Metoprolol– Atenolol– Propanolol– Amiodarone
– Useful by blocking the beta-adrengergic receptors of the sympathetic nervous system, the heart rate and force of contractility are decreased could actually worsen CHF
![Page 39: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
– The prehospital goals for managing CHF– Promotion of rest– Relief of anxiety– Decreasing cardiac workload– Attainment of normal tissue perfusion
![Page 40: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
– DO NOT make these patient’s walk– Could start a fluid “rush” into the alveoli– Try to get them to sit still if they appear
agitated and hypoxic
![Page 41: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
– Often experienced– Leads to increase in O2 demand and cardiac
workload– Explain what you are doing– MS 2 mg for treatment of anxiety and for
decreasing preload
![Page 42: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

– Prevent the production of the chemicals that causes blood vessels to narrow
– Resulting in blood pressure decreasing and the heart pumping easier
![Page 44: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
– Inotropic effects on the heart– Negative chronotropic effects

– Decrease the body’s retention of salt and water– Reduces blood pressure– Probably will be on potassium
![Page 46: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
– Widens the blood vessels, therefore allowing more blood flow
![Page 47: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
– Relaxation of smooth muscle – Widens blood vessels– Lowers systolic blood pressure
![Page 48: Heart failure lecture 3](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a63b3c1a28ab2d5c8b463e/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
