Heart failure is the inability of the heart to produce adequate cardiac output (Huether & McCance, 2012). Nearly 2% of all Americans have some form of heart failure (McLaughlin, Hoy, & Glackin, 2015). Heart failure can occur as left-sided heart failure, right-sided heart failure, high-output heart failure, or a combination thereof (Ignatavicius &Workman, 2016). While there is no cure for heart failure, treatments are centered on controlling the decline of the cardiac muscle and maintenance of the

Introduction: Congestive heart failure, also called CHF or heart failure.1 It is a serious and complex disease in which the heart muscle has been damaged. CHF means that the working power of heart is weaker than normal; it does not mean that the heart has stopped working. Heart failure is a condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to the body's tissues. Although the heart continues to beat, but the enough oxygen-rich blood is not supply to and from the body due to the damaged heart muscle, which

pressure. Filtration will occur until the equilibrium is reached. If the two hydrostatic pressures between the compartments are equal, then filtration will not occur. An example of filtration would be edema caused by right sided heart failure. In said diagnosis, there is right-sided hypertrophy due to it having to work harder than normal. Not enough blood is pushed out of the right side, so it backs up into the venous system where the hydrostatic pressure will continue to rise which causes capillary
How a person prioritizes their ambition can affect how their relationships with others, and is a very dominant factor in trust.

“Hidden Intellectualism” response essay The measure of intelligence is not entirely from the knowledge given, but from the knowledge you have produced by yourself working together as a whole. Knowledge can come from anywhere in different forms and amounts. The author brings the truth to light about knowledge and where it can come from and the importance of accepting the different forms through examples.

Rodney (1972:3) states that development in human society is a many-sided process. At the level of the individual, it implies increased skill and capacity, greater freedom, creativity, selfdiscipline, responsibility, and material well-being’. Mkandawire and Soludo, eds. (1998) stated that ‘the turn of the millennium

Mary Burns points out his need to “assent” to everything in a very one-sided argument they have over his relationship with his daughter Sunny (861). He “doesn’t wish to go further” in the conversation, claiming that he doesn’t have the “stomach for these engagements, for taking certain issues to the necessary lengths” (877)
