& PATHOPHYSIOLOGY: (include #(# reference and in te4t citations' (>echanics of disease, risk factors, how to diagnose, how to treat, &rognosis, and include any genetic factors im&acting the diagnosis, &rognosis or treatment'
2eart failure is caused by any condition which reduces the efficiency of the myocardium, or heart muscle, through damage or overloading. #s such, it can be caused by a wide number of conditions, including myocardial infarction (in which the heart muscle is starved of o4ygen and dies', hy&ertension (which increases the force of contraction needed to &um& blood' and amyloidosis (in which &rotein is de&osited in the heart muscle, causing it to stiffen'. Over time these increases in workload will &roduce changes to the heart itself (2eart 6ailure +7/0'. %hese changes (reduced force of contraction, reduced stroke volume, increased heart rate, hy&ertro&hy and enlargement of the ventricles' work together to result in an overall decrease in cardiac out&ut, which serves to increase the demand on the heart which increases the risk of cardiac arrest and organ failure due to hy&o&erfusion. In systolic dysfunction, the body activates several neurohormonal &athways to increase circulating blood volume. %he sym&athetic nervous system increases heart rate and contractility, causes arteriolar vasoconstriction in nonessential vascular beds, and stimulates secretion of renin from the Gu4taglomerular a&&aratus of the kidney. 8nfortunately, catecholamines aggravate ischemia, &otentiate arrhythmias, &romote cardiac remodeling, and are directly to4ic to myocytes. 1timulation of the renin)angiotensin system as a result of increased sym&athetic stimulation and decreased renal &erfusion results in further arteriolar vasoconstriction, sodium and water retention, and release of aldosterone. #n increased aldosterone level, in turn, leads to sodium and water retention, endothelial dysfunction, and organ fibrosis. $isk factors for "26 include; hy&ertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, family history of cardiomyo&athy, use of cardioto4ins, and obesity. %he initial evaluation of new)onset heart failure should include an electrocardiogram, chest radiogra&h, and B9( assay. 3E= findings of A hy&ertro&hy, left bundle branch block, intraventricular conduction delay, and nons&ecific 1%)segment and % wave changes su&&ort a diagnosis of heart failure (2obbs and Boyle +7/0'. Initially a set of obGective signs and sym&toms may &resent before the &atient is aware of heart failure; !ys&nea, cyanosis, &roductive cough, ortho&nea, dys&nea on e4ertion and &eri&heral edema may all result from "26. ifestyle modifications must be enacted in combination to any &harmacological treatment regimeH +)g 1odium diet, >onitoring weight daily, +) 6luid restriction, >onitoring blood &ressure, and smoking cessation should all be considered. (harmacological management includes medications such as; !iuretics and

8niversity of 1outh 6lorida "ollege of 9ursing : $evision #ugust +7/.

#ce Inhibitors to decrease fluid retention and increase diuresis to normaliCe fluid volumes. Beta blockers are used to decrease heart rate and therefore decrease myocardial O+ demand. 2obbs and Boyle state that the e4act nature of their action is unknown. %he e4act mechanism of beta blocker action is unclear, but it likely involves antiarrhythmic, anti) ischemic, anti)remodeling, and anti)a&o&totic &ro&erties, as well as im&roved beta rece&tor &athway function. >yocardial o4ygen consum&tion is reduced with beta blockers, &rimarily because of a reduction in heart rate (2obbs and Boyle +7/0'. 2eart failure can only be cured by a heart trans&lantH &revention and early detection are its greatest defenses. (atients with heart failure will live with and must manage their heart failure with medications and lifestyle modifications to &revent &remature e4acerbation.
