Congestive Heart Failure
Natriuretic Peptide System as Therapy in Human Preclinical Left Ventricle Dysfunction
In congestive heart failure, cardiac output is low, blood pressure is high, and the body becomes congested with fluid. In normal people, when there is high blood pressure, the heart muscle cells secrete a hormone that excretes…
