Veins are blood vessels that carry blood towards the heart
Vena Cava (largest vein) carries blood from the body back to the heart
Right Atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body
Tricuspid Valve prevents the backflow of blood between the RA and the
RV
Right Ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood into the pulmonary artery
Pulmonary Artery carries deoxygenated blood from the RV to the lungs
Pulmonary Vein takes oxygenated blood from the lungs to the LA
Left Atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
Mitral Valve prevents the backflow of blood between the LA and the LV

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Predisposing Factors:
*Elderly age (weakened
heart muscle)
Cardiac Insult:
Precipitating Factors:
*Heart Disease
*Faulty Diet
*Tobacco Use
*Sedentary Lifestyle
*Increased systemic
oxygen demand
*Previous Heart
Attack
Increased workload of
the right ventricle
Increased workload of
the left ventricle
Right-ventricular

Weakening of left

Weakening of left

Right-Sided Heart
Failure:
*Cardiomegaly
*Hepatomegaly
*Cardiac cirrhosis
*Congestion of the
gastro-intestinal
tract with: nausea,
anorexia
*Anasarca or
systemic edema
*Ascites
*Jugular vein
distention
Decreased blood
flow to the left
cardiac chambers
Left-Sided Heart
Failure:
*Crackles
*Dyspnea
*Orthopnea
*Paroxysmal
*Nocturnal Dyspnea
*Cough
*Pink, frothy
sputum
*Cardiac asthma
*Cheyne-stokes
*respirations
