Cardio Exam 2 - Andrews - Part 1 MC Detailed

Heart failure is connected with a lot of morbidity and mortality

• True
• False

What are characteristics of heart failure

• a clinical syndrome
• results from any functional or structural cardiac disorder that impairs the ventricle's ability to fill with or eject blood
• is when the heart is unable to meet the metabolic needs of the body
• results when there is only structural disorders that impairs with the ventricle's ability to eject
• when the heart is not able to meet only the brain's need of the body

What are the different types of heart failure

• low-output
• high-output
• systolic
• diastolic

What type of heart failure is occuring when the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet normal metabolic needs of the body

• low-output
• high-output
• systolic
• diastolic

What type of heart failure is occuring when the metabolic demand of the body is greater than the heart can supply

• low-output
• high-output
• systolic
• diastolic

What is a type of high-output heart failure

• acute myocardial infarction
• cardiac tamponade
• pulmonary embolism
• acute valve failure
• thyrotoxicosis

What type of heart failure is occuring when the heart cannot create enough force to eject adequate amount of blood from the left ventricle

• low-output
• high-output
• systolic
• diastolic

What type of heart failure is occuring when the heart cannot relax enough for adequate filling of the ventricle

• low-output
• high-output
• systolic
• diastolic

What type of heart failure cannot eject enough blood and it backs up into the venous circulation causing fluid to back up into the abd, legs, and feet leading to swelling

• right sided
• left sided
• systolic
• diastolic

What type of heart failure cannot eject enough blood and it backs up into the pulmonary circulation causing shortness of breath

• right sided
• left sided
• systolic
• diastolic
