Heart failure, sometimes known as congestive heart failure,
occurs when your heart muscle doesn't pump blood as well as it should. Heart
failure is described by the heart's failure to siphon a sufficient stock of
blood to the body. Without adequate blood stream, all significant body
capacities are disturbed. Cardiovascular breakdown is a condition or an
assortment of side effects that debilitate your heart.
Heart failure can affect the right or left side of your
heart, or both at the same time. It can be either an acute (short-term) or
chronic (ongoing) condition.

What are Causes of
Heart Failure?
When both the ventricular do not work in the coordination,
i.e. they do not pump blood together, it leads to heart failure, and the result
is an imbalance in cardiac functioning. Other conditions that may increase your
risk for developing heart failure include:
Cardiomyopathy, a disorder of the heart muscle that causes
the heart to become weak
What are Efforts to
Prevent Further Heart Damage?
Stop smoking or chewing tobacco.
Reach and maintain your healthy weight.
Control high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and
diabetes.
Exercise regularly.
Do not drink alcohol.
Have surgery or other procedures to treat your heart failure
as recommended.
