Causes

Why is it needed?

  • Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): The most common cause of heart failure, CAD occurs when the coronary arteries become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup, restricting blood flow to the heart muscle.

  • Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack): A heart attack results from an interruption of blood supply to the heart, causing damage to heart tissue, which can lead to heart failure.

  •  Heart Valve Disease: Damage or dysfunction of the heart valves can lead to increased pressure within the heart and contribute to heart failure.

  • Arrhythmias: Irregular heart rhythms can weaken the heart's pumping efficiency and contribute to heart failure symptoms.

  • Congenital Heart Defects: Structural heart problems present at birth can lead to heart failure as the heart struggles to manage blood flow.

  •  Lifestyle habits such as lack of physical activity, obesity, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and diabetes.
