fluid issues is an everyday task. In one situation‚ I was dealing with a patient whose blood pressure averaged 230/130. This patient would have generalized edema and would have fluid gain on average of five kilograms between treatments.

Through empirical knowledge‚ we know that the increased fluid in the body will only increase the patient’s blood pressure (Forough Rafii et al.‚ 2021). This

compliance by the patient. Heart failure begins when the heart is not able to pump blood efficiently out to the body. In left-sided heart failure‚ the heart muscle becomes weak and the ventricles do not eject adequate blood volume‚ leading to pulmonary edema. Cardiac output reduces and the metabolic demands of the body are not met. Right-sided heart failure results when the right ventricle does not provide sufficient cardiac output causing systemic congestion. Contractility diminishes because of causes
