Left heart failure (LHF) occurs when left side of the heart is unable to pump the total volume of the blood it receives from the right side of the heart. As a result, the pulmonary circuit becomes congested with blood (backward effects) that cannot be moved forward and the systemic blood pressure falls (forward effects). The most common heart failure is MI. Other causes include systemic hypertension, valvular stenosis or insufficiency, and cardiomyopathy.
