2. Heart failure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure

   Congestive heart failure is a pathophysiological condition in which the heart's output is insufficient to meet the needs of the body and lungs. [10] The term "congestive heart failure" is often used because one of the most common symptoms is congestion or fluid accumulation in the tissues and veins of the lungs or other parts of a person's body ...

3. Cardiac contractility modulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_contractility...

   Cardiac contractility modulation therefore restores the structure and function of damaged cells back towards their normal state. In some cases, disease-related changes in the ventricular heart structure can be partially reversed by cardiac contractility modulation through a process known as reverse remodeling of the heart. [3] [4] [5] [18] [40 ...

   People with TIC most often present with symptoms of congestive heart failure and/or symptoms related to their irregular heart rhythm. [1] Symptoms of congestive heart failure can include shortness of breath, ankle swelling, fatigue, and weight gain. [2] Symptoms of an irregular heart rhythm can include palpitations and chest discomfort. [2]

5. Cardiac arrest - Wikipedia

   Examples of structural heart diseases include: cardiomyopathies (hypertrophic, dilated, or arrhythmogenic), cardiac rhythm disturbances, myocarditis, and congestive heart failure. [38] EKG depiction of left ventricular hypertrophy. Left ventricular hypertrophy is a leading cause of sudden cardiac deaths in the adult population.

6. Situs inversus - Wikipedia

   The heart is located on the right side of the thorax, the stomach and spleen on the right side of the abdomen and the liver and gall bladder on the left side. The heart's normal right atrium occurs on the left, and the left atrium is on the right. The lung anatomy is reversed and the left lung has three lobes while the right lung has two lobes.
