Heart Failure - Symptoms This is called sudden heart failure. It causes fluid to build up in your lungs, causing congestion. (This is why the problem is often called congestive heart failure .) Symptoms may include: 1  Severe shortness of breath. 2  An irregular or fast heartbeat. 3  Coughing up foamy, pink mucus.

Overview This happens if the heart muscle becomes stiff from conditions such as high blood pressure. The term congestive heart failure comes from blood backing up into — or congesting — the liver, abdomen, lower extremities and lungs. However, not all heart failure is congestive. You might have shortness of breath or weakness due to heart failure and not have any fluid building up. Heart failure can involve the left side (left ventricle), right side (right ventricle) or both sides of your heart.

- Left-side heart failure occurs if the heart can't pump enough oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. Right-side heart failure may cause fluid to build up in the feet, ankles, legs, liver, abdomen, and the veins in the neck.he condition can affect the right side of the heart only, or it can affect both sides of the heart. Most cases involve both sides of the heart. Right-side heart failure occurs if the heart can't pump enough blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen.

- Right-sided heart failure occurs in about 1 in 20 people. Coronary artery disease is the most common cause of heart failure in the United States, but it can be a complication of other conditions. Heart failure may affect the right side of the heart (right ventricle), the left side (left ventricle), or both sides. In right-sided heart failure, the right ventricle loses its pumping function, and blood may back up into other areas of the body, producing congestion.

Structural Biochemistry/Cell Signaling Pathways/Circulatory System Right-side and left-side heart failure also may cause shortness of breath and fatigue (tiredness). The leading causes of heart failure are diseases that damage the heart. Examples include coronary heart disease (CHD), high blood pressure, and diabetes. Outlook. Heart failure is a very common condition.

What are the symptoms of congestive heart failure? The symptoms of heart failure may be mild or severe. It all depends on how badly the heart (pump) is weakened. Some symptoms are: shortness of breath (dyspnea) unable to lie flat (orthopnea) swelling in the feet and legs (edema) confusion. fatigue.

Congestive Heart Failure Congestive heart failure is most common on the left side of the heart, which receives freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs and does most of the work to pump it out to your organs, but it can also occur on the right side, which receives oxygen-depleted blood and sends it to the lungs to be reoxygenated.

Heart Failure Signs and Symptoms Typical signs of heart failure include: 1  Breathlessness or Shortness of Breath (Dyspnea) — When the heart begins to fail, blood backs up in the veins attempting to carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. As fluid pools in the lungs, it interferes with normal breathing.

Congenital Heart Defects Some people who have cardiomyopathy never have signs or symptoms. Others don't have signs or symptoms in the early stages of the disease. As cardiomyopathy worsens and the heart weakens, signs and symptoms of heart failure usually occur. These signs and symptoms include: 1  Shortness of breath or trouble breathing, especially with physical exertion. 2  Fatigue (tiredness). 3  Swelling in the ankles, feet, legs, abdomen and veins in the neck.

Right heart failure Right heart failure: Introduction. Failure of the right side of the heart to pump blood efficiently which causes the blood to back up and produce congestion. It can be caused by conditions such as pulmonary hypertension, heart valve disease and is frequently associated with coronary artery disease. Any type of heart failure is a serious medical condition.

Heart Failure Heart failure can affect the right or left side of your heart, or both at the same time. It can be either an acute (short-term) or chronic (ongoing) condition. In acute heart failure, the symptoms appear suddenly but go away fairly quickly. This condition often occurs after a heart attack.

Right-Sided Heart Failure - Topic Overview But reduced function of the right ventricle can also occur in heart failure. As blood begins to back up behind the failing left ventricle and into the lungs, it will become harder for the right ventricle to pump returning blood through the lungs.

Congestive Heart Failure Symptoms depend on which area of the body is most involved in the reduced pumping action. When the left side of the heart (left ventricle) starts to fail, fluid collects in the lungs (edema). This extra fluid in the lungs (pulmonary congestion) makes it more difficult for the airways to expand as a person inhales.

Heart Failure Forward effects of left sided HF. decreased cardiac output, decreased perfusion in tissues of body, decreased blood flow to kidneys and glands, increased reabsorption of sodium and water from the increased secretion of the sodium and water retaining hormones, increased extracellular fluid volume and total blood volume.

- COPD and Right-Sided Heart Failure. Severe COPD can cause heart failure in the heart’s right ventricle, a condition called right-sided heart failure or cor pulmonale. In severe COPD, oxygen concentration in the blood falls to abnormally low levels. In response, the walls of the main blood vessels inside the lungs (pulmonary arteries) change.

Heart Failure: What Happens to the Body Failure on the left side is linked to a general weakening of the heart muscle. This is the more common type of heart failure. The weakened heart muscle no longer can keep up with the demands of the body for oxygen-rich blood. Back-up into the lungs occurs. Symptoms of left-side heart failure include: 1  Tiredness (fatigue). 2  Shortness of breath. 3  Asthma-like wheezing.

Congestive heart failure Congestive heart failure can affect the right side, left side or both sides of the heart. When the right side of the heart begins to function less efficiently, it is unable to pump much blood into the vessels of the lungs.hen the left side of the heart fails, it is unable to pump blood to the body efficiently. Blood begins to back up into the vessels in the lungs and the lungs become stressed. Breathing becomes faster and more difficult.

Congestive Heart Failure Symptoms, Treatment, Stages, Life Expectancy and Prognosis When the right side of the heart (right ventricle) starts to fail, fluid begins to collect in the feet and lower legs. Puffy leg swelling (edema) is a sign of right heart failure, especially if the edema is pitting edema. With pitting edema, a finger pressed on the swollen leg leaves an imprint. Non-pitting edema is not caused by heart failure.
