Heart Failure Concept Map

Heart failure occurs when the heart muscle does not pump blood as well as it should. When this happens, blood often backs up, and fluid can build up in the lungs, causing shortness of breath and causing people to fall. This heart failure concept map depicts the common long-term condition that is becoming more common. It is more of a syndrome than a disease, with numerous causes. The main clinical symptoms are shortness of breath, fatigue, and ankle swelling, which are not unique to the condition; patients may also exhibit depression. Numerous definitions of HF indicate that it should be classified as a syndrome rather than a disease. EdrawMind lets you draw the Heart failure concept map with its ready-to-use templates.
