Artwork of heart & ECG trace in heart failure
Heart failure. Cutaway illustration of a human heart and an ECG (electrocardiogram) trace in left ventricular heart failure. The trace shows cardiac arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat), a major cause of heart failure. Heart failure occurs when the heart fails to empty itself completely with each contraction. In left ventricular failure the left ventricle (right) is responsible. As a result its muscular wall becomes abnormally enlarged and a backflow of pressure occurs against the pulmonary vein, causing the lungs to become congested with blood. Symptoms include pulmonary oedema, shortness of breath and fatigue. Short-term treatment includes bed-rest and diuretic drugs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an intricate artwork depicting the devastating effects of heart failure on the human heart. The cutaway illustration reveals a detailed view of a human heart, accompanied by an electrocardiogram (ECG) trace that displays cardiac arrhythmia, a common cause of this condition. Heart failure occurs when the heart is unable to pump blood effectively, leading to inadequate circulation throughout the body. In left ventricular failure, which is highlighted in this artwork, the left ventricle becomes enlarged and fails to empty itself completely during each contraction. This results in increased pressure against the pulmonary vein, causing congestion in the lungs. The visual representation beautifully captures both the anatomical changes within the heart and its corresponding ECG abnormalities. It serves as a powerful reminder of how irregular heartbeat patterns contribute significantly to heart failure. Symptoms associated with this condition include pulmonary edema, shortness of breath, and fatigue. While short-term treatment options such as bed-rest and diuretic drugs can provide relief for patients experiencing these symptoms, it is crucial to address underlying causes and manage long-term care effectively. Through its combination of artistry and medical knowledge, this thought-provoking print from Science Photo Library offers valuable insights into cardiovascular health while shedding light on one aspect of our complex circulatory system affected by disease.
