Impaired cardiac function → unable for the cardiac muscles to contract → unable to propel the blood to the systemic circulation → unable to supply oxygen to metabolic processes Congestive Heart Failure
Pathophysiologic state resulting from impaired cardiac function that renders the heart muscle unable to maintain an output sufficient for the metabolic requirements of the tissues & organs Congestive Heart Failure
In order to maintain the CO, the heart muscles must stretch → dilatation of the heart muscles → increase in the preload and increase in the contractility of the heart → increased cardiac output (volume pumped out). Frank – Starling Mechanism
Increased cross-sectional areas of the myocytes; increase wall thickness , reduced cavity diameter Pressure overload or Concentric hypertrophy
deposition of new sarcomeres; cell length and width and muscle mass and wall thickness are increased in proportion to chamber diameter Volume overload
