What is Chronic Heart Failure?
Chronic heart failure occurs when the heart doesn't pump blood as well as it should. It's caused by conditions that overwork the heart, such as high blood pressure, heart valve disease, thyroid disease, kidney disease, diabetes, and heart defects from birth.
Treatment of Chronic Heart Failure
The treatment plan depends on the severity. Treatments can include diet modifications (eating less salt, limiting fluid intake), taking prescription medication, or surgery (for example, implantation of a pacemaker).
