Apatient presents to urgent care complaining of dyspnea, fatigue, and lower extremity edema. the echocardiogram reveals and ejection fraction of 38%. the nurse practitioner knows that these findings are consistent with: a. mitral regurgitationb. systolic heart failurec. cardiac myxomad. diastolic heart failure

Systolic heart failure

Explanation:

Heart failure, chronic or acute, occurs when the heart is damaged or weakened due to various causes.

The damage may be in the form of weakening of heart muscles, heart stiffness, or dilation of ventricles. Any of this damage directly affects the pumping of blood by the heart.

This decreases the ejection fraction of the heart to less than 50% indicating that blood is not pumped with the normal force.

Systolic heart failure arises due to failure of vigorous contraction by the left ventricle which impairs the pumping of blood.  

The common symptoms of systolic heart failure include dyspnea, fatigue, edema of ankles and legs, irregular heartbeat, fluid retention etc

1 true

2 true

and 3 true im assuming these are true or false. hope this

no, because those are both different running competitions. while distance runners train their legs and their lungs to run long amounts of time, the sprinters are training their legs and their lungs to give all they have in the little amount of area they need to cover. the brain also plays a huge part in all of this.

the brain is the only thing in your body that sends messages to your body telling you to run. if you are a long distance runner and you have the mind set of a sprinter, you will not get anywhere. if you have a long distance mind set and you have to run 200m in 20 seconds then you will not make it in time.
