HEALTH TIPS - CHRONIC PULMONARY HEARY DISEASE

Thursday, February 4, 2010

The term pulmonary heart disease many be defined as right sided health heart disease secondary to disease of the lungs or pulmonary vessels. The principal causes of chronic cur fulminate are emphysema and diffuse fibrosis (including pneumonia). Less frequently the condition results from obstruction in the pulmonary artery or arterioles from thrombi-embolism. In certain industrial regions of England cur culminate from chronic respiratory disease is the most common form of cardiac failure. Acute cur culminate from massive pulmonary embolism is described.

Cur culminate may be manifested by right ventricular failure, hypertrophy or dilatation. It should be noted that pulmonary hypertension itself does not necessarily signify heart disease any more than does systemic hypertension.
