Hypertensive heart and renal disease with (congestive) heart failure - what does this mean
Hypertensive heart and renal disease with congestive heart failure is a condition caused by high blood pressure that affects the heart and kidneys. it is characterized by the over-stretching of the heart muscle that leads to an inability to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs, resulting in fluid buildup in the lungs and other organs.
What happens during the disease - hypertensive heart and renal disease with (congestive) heart failure
Hypertensive heart and renal disease with (congestive) heart failure is caused by an increase in blood pressure over time leading to increased strain on the heart and kidneys. this can lead to damage to the heart muscle, and the kidneys not being able to filter out waste as efficiently as before. over time, the heart becomes weaker, leading to a decreased ability to pump blood around the body, resulting in congestive heart failure.
