What is heart failure and how it affects daily life
Heart failure means the heart pumps blood less effectively, leaving cells undersupplied with oxygen and nutrients. This causes fatigue and shortness of breath during ordinary tasks like walking or stairs. It is a chronic, progressive condition with no cure, but management through medications lifestyle changes and support can enable a full life. For more information visit www.heart.org
