Answer
cardiovascular disease
high blood pressure, drug abuse, hihg cholestoral, tobacco, bad
activity/nutrition
heart is unable to pump as much blood as the venous system supplies
blood is left in the ventricles and venous system, which results in no blood in
arterial system. Fluids accumulate and the heart is burdened
disorder of the left ventricle
anasarca is developed especially in hands, feet, abdomen. Enlargement of ab
organs is also available
high blood pressure, mitral or aortic valve disease, coronary artery disease,
myocardium disease
pulmonary edema, due to the heart not able to remove fluid
dyspnea
shortness of breath
kidneys absorb more sodium and more blood volume in vascular sytem
increases clotting chances
quivering or spontaneous contraction of individual cardiac cells
loss of the normal beating rhythm of the heart
