Across
- 4. Fraction Measurement used to classify heart failure by determining the percentage of blood pumped out of the heart.
- 5. Heart Failure Heart failure that primarily affects the right side of the heart, causing systemic edema.
- 7. Heart Failure Sudden onset or worsening of heart failure symptoms requiring immediate treatment.
- 11. Heart failure type with preserved ejection fraction greater than 50%.
- 14. Heart Failure Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, characterized by impaired relaxation of the heart.
- 15. Cardiomyopathy Thickening of the heart muscle, leading to diastolic dysfunction.
Down
- 1. Heart Failure Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, characterized by impaired contraction of the heart.
- 2. Heart failure type with an ejection fraction of less than 40%.
- 3. Heart Failure General term for heart failure with fluid retention and congestion.
- 6. Heart failure type with mildly reduced ejection fraction between 41-49%.
- 8. Heart Failure Long-term, persistent heart failure requiring ongoing management.
- 9. Edema Fluid accumulation in the lungs, commonly associated with heart failure.
- 10. Disease of the heart muscle that can lead to heart failure.
- 12. Heart Failure Heart failure that primarily affects the left side of the heart, causing pulmonary congestion.
- 13. Cardiomyopathy Enlargement of the heart chambers, leading to systolic dysfunction.
