Review Blood Circulation
What is heart failure?
• The American College of Cardiology/American Heart
Association (ACC/AHA) (2005) provides a scientific
statement defining heart failure as
“A complex clinical syndrome that can result
from any structural or functional cardiac disorder
that impairs the ability of the ventricle to fill with or
eject blood. The cardinal manifestations of HF are
dyspnea and fatigue, which may limit exercise
tolerance, and fluid retention, which may lead to
pulmonary congestion and peripheral edema (p.
e160).”
• Heart failure usually occurs when another
problem makes the heart weak or stiff so it
doesn’t pump or fill normally.

HF……
……..complex progression of domino effects
involving cardiac and neurohormonal
systems……..
Compensatory Mechanisms
• Sympathetic Nervous System Stimulation
• RAAS
• Neurohormonal responses
TNF / Interlukins 1 and 6
BNP
Endothelin
[1] Sympathetic Nervous System
Stimulation
• Normal adaptive mechanism:
– As a response to decreased CO, the body attempts to
compensate:
– increased release of catecholamines
• Undersirable effects of catecholamine release:
– Afterload is increased, increasing cardiac work load
– SV Inc----Starling’s Law---– Arterial vasoconstriction----leading to---Inc afterload—LV
requiring more energy to eject----SV declines
[2] Neurohormonal Responses
[1] After MI
release of proinflammatory
cytokines (TNF) and interleukins (IL 1 & IL 6) , leading
to ventricular remodeling.
[2] BNP release
promote diuresis, (vasodilates)
counteract RAAS
decrease preload
decrease CO
Decreased cerebral perfusion
release of vasopressin/ ADH (fluid retention) from
the PPG
causes vasoconstriction
worsening HF
[3] RAAS
– Blood flow to kidneys reduced, which activates the reninangiotension system (RAS)
– Activation of RAAS, leads to production of renin, ACE 1,
ACE 2, Aldosterone, leading to NA and water
retention……..
– Preload and afterload increase
– Leading to ventricular remodeling , consisting of left
ventricular dilatation, myocyte hypertrophy and elongation.
– Enhanced neurohormonal stimulation can lead to apoptosis,
aggravation of ventricular contractility and death
(ACC/AHA, 2005).
[3] Release of endothelins (potent vasoconstrictor)
increased peripheral resistance,
increase B/P ( worsening of HF).
[4] Myocardial Hypertrophy
• Final compensatory mechanism
• Heart wall thickens
increased
contractions increase CO
leading to
hypertrophied cardiac muscle
increase
O2 consumption
myocardial reserve exhausted
HF!!!
• HF is a common outcome for many
cardiovascular diseases that results in
symptomatic or asymptomatic left ventricular
dysfunction (LVD).
• HF is a vicious cycle if left untreated.
• Dysfunction begets additional dysfunction
that culminates in the demise of the patient
(Ramakrishnan, et al., 2005).
Summary:
Role of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in
HF
• BNP is a group of natriuretic peptides that are
involved in the regulation of diuresis.
• Antagonizes and counteract the vasoconstricting
effects of the renin angiotensin-aldosterone system
(RAAS), thereby regulating blood pressure and fluid
balance (Chiong & Miller, 2002).
• Is a neurohormone released from the cardiac
ventricles in response to increased volume and
cardiac overload (Mark & Felker, 2004).

Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the survival benefit with ISDN plus
hydralazine appeared at around 180 days and increased progressively from then on.
Conclusion:
• A-HeFT data "support, but do not prove the
existence of a protective role of NO even in
the presence of neurohormonal blockade."
They call for "a strategy to identify genotypic
and phenotypic characteristics that would
transcend racial or ethnic categories to
identify a population with heart failure in
which there is an increased likelihood of
favorable response to such therapy."

Signs
and
Symptoms
of
Heart Failure
• The staging of HF was devised to establish the
evolution and progression of the disease that
can worsen over time.
• These levels or stages can only advance
forward and not backward. This classification
focuses on patients with HF as well as those
who are at risk of developing HF (ACC/ AHA,
2005).
ACC/AHA Classification of Chronic Heart
Failure
A
High risk for
developing heart failure
B
Asymptomatic
heart failure
C
Symptomatic heart
failure
D
Refractory end-stage
heart failure
Hypertension, diabetes
mellitus, CAD, family history
of cardiomyopathy
Previous MI, LV dysfunction,
valvular heart disease
Structural heart disease,
dyspnea and fatigue, impaired
exercise tolerance
Marked symptoms at rest
despite maximal medical
therapy
NYHA Functional Classification
• NYHA I = No limitation of physical activity. Ordinary
physical activity does not cause undue fatigue,
palpitation, or dyspnea (shortness of breath)
• NYHA II (Mild) Slight limitation of physical activity.
Comfortable at rest, but ordinary physical activity results in
fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea.
• NYHA III (Moderate) Marked limitation of physical activity.
Comfortable at rest, but less than ordinary activity causes
fatigue, palpitation, or dyspnea.
• NYHA IV (Severe) Unable to carry out any physical activity
without discomfort. Symptoms of cardiac insufficiency at rest.
If any physical activity is undertaken, discomfort is increased.

HF-ACTION enrolled 2331 patients at 82 study sites
throughout the U.S., Canada and France. Patients
were randomized into a group that received usual
care or to a group that received usual care plus an
exercise training program that began under
supervision but then transitioned to home-based,
self-monitored workouts.
Conclusion:
Based on the protocol-specified initial analysis,
exercise training produced only a modest, nonsignificant reduction in the primary endpoint of
all-cause hospitalization or all-cause death.
QOL:
Researchers also found that a higher percentage of those in the
exercise group experienced more robust gains. At three months, 54
percent of those in the exercise group saw a five-point gain in
overall KCCQ score, while only 28 percent of those in the usual care
group met that goal. (p = .0001).

Pearls to Remember
[1] Do not miss correctable causes

[3] Get echocardiogram. Get clinical picture
low EF= systolic Hf, normal EF= Diastolic HF
[4]Check BNP levels (helpful dyspnea or SOB)
[5] ACEI, ARB = decrease mortality
[6] BB=increase longevity, reduce morbidity and
mortality
• [7] Digoxin helpful in AFIB.
• [8] Spironolactone= reduce mortality in class
IV HF. Watch for hyperkalemia.
• [9] AICD for patients with EF<35% (sudden
death)
• [10] BI-V for resistant Hf if QRS duration is
>120ms
• [11] transplant for resistant HF, if no serious
co-morbidities.
