Nursing Care Plan – Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
Congestive Heart Failure or CHF is a severe circulatory congestion due to decreased myocardial contractility, which results in the heart’s inability to pump sufficient blood to meet the body’s needs.
About 80% of CHF cases occur before 1 year of age.
