Insufficiency of heart failure implies the inability of the organ to completely fulfill its purpose. There are many signs of this ailment, but each of them indicates a painful state of the main organ. The evolution of this disease occurs gradually, problems in the functioning of the heart increase with the age of the patient. In the young age, people do not feel interruptions, because the heart tissues and blood vessels have sufficient tone to supply blood to all parts of the body. The important thing is the timely diagnosis of this disease, knowledge of its symptoms, strategies for their management and involvement in the daily life of patients.
In the article Tahiti et al. discuss symptom experience its management strategies and health related quality of life of patients with heart failure. The authors point out that this disease is a chronic condition in which people experience multiple symptoms and use a number of symptom management strategies, but the efficiency of these is different, affecting the life of people under risk. The study’s main goal was to examine the predictability of health quality using prevalence, frequency, severity, and distress of symptoms and its control, and selected variables such as age, employment status, and comorbid condition among people with heart failure (Thida et al., 2020). The results of the study confirm that the treatment of heart failure should be aimed at reducing the symptoms. In addition, due attention should be paid to effective strategies for the prevention of symptoms and treatment of concomitant diseases to improve the quality of life of patients with heart failure.

So, for example, if as a result of a myocardial infarction or a rheumatic lesion of the left ventricle, left ventricular failure has developed, then there is an increase in pressure in the left atrium and in the veins of the small circulatory circle, and this can be realized in the final stages of the process by pulmonary edema. If dilatation occurs with myocardial or mixed form of heart failure, it is an unfavorable prognostic sign.
