Right-sided heart failure, artwork
Artwork of right-sided heart failure showing damaged heart muscle (brown, lower centre) weakening the power of both the left and right ventricles to pump blood (red arrows) around the body. Heart failure is when the heart fails to empty itself fully with each beat, causing a backflow of pressure against the pulmonary veins of the lungs (blue) which can lead to oedema (fluid) in the lungs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork by Science Photo Library depicts the intricate details of right-sided heart failure, shedding light on the devastating effects it has on the human body. The damaged heart muscle, portrayed in a somber shade of brown at the lower center of the print, symbolizes the weakened power of both ventricles to effectively pump blood throughout our system. The red arrows elegantly illustrate how this condition impairs the heart's ability to fully empty itself with each beat, resulting in a dangerous backflow of pressure against the pulmonary veins in our lungs. This can lead to pulmonary edema, as depicted by blue hues representing fluid accumulation within air sacs. Through this thought-provoking illustration, we gain insight into an alarming medical diagnosis that affects countless individuals worldwide. It serves as a reminder of just how crucial proper cardiac function is for overall health and well-being. Science Photo Library masterfully combines artistry and scientific accuracy to create visually stunning representations that aid in understanding complex diseases like right-sided heart failure. Their dedication to providing educational resources for healthcare professionals and patients alike is evident through this powerful image capturing both beauty and vulnerability within our own bodies.
