As a result, the heart may try to pump harder, and this may
lead to congestive heart failure or it may worsen an existing heart failure.
Despite its initial positive impact on the heart function, adaptive hypertrophy usually causes ventricular dilatation and
leads to congestive heart failure.
If untreated, this could
lead to congestive heart failure.
This leads to congestive heart failure and death.
It is transmitted through the bites of mosquitoes, and it resides in the heart of its hosts,
leading to congestive heart failure.
The presence of adult canine heartworms, if left untreated,
leads to congestive heart failure.
This greater workload causes pulmonary hypertension, which left untreated may
lead to congestive heart failure.
We all may have suffered from a broken heart at one point in our lives, but when our pet has an actual broken heart, it can
lead to congestive heart failure (CHF).
This condition can
lead to congestive heart failure and a poor long - term prognosis if left untreated.
About 35 % of all dogs over the age of 12 show some signs of endocarditis, but toy breeds are susceptible to early onset of the problem, which can
lead to congestive heart failure and very early death.
Heart disease can
lead to congestive heart failure (CHF), which occurs when the heart can no longer pump blood effectively.
Heart disease in cats is a medical precursor to congestive heart failure in cats, because heart disease can
lead to congestive heart failure in cats if untreated.
The heart has an increased work load since it must pump additional blood to excess tissues, a situation that can
lead to congestive heart failure.
Deficiency, as can occur if cats are fed a homemade diet low in taurine, can cause blindness as well as dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) which can
lead to congestive heart failure (CHF).
DCM can
lead to congestive heart failure (CHF) and death.
If left untreated, it will
lead to congestive heart failure and death.
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) Cardiomyopathy usually affects dogs under seven years old, and involves dilation or enlargement of the bottom of the heart and thinning of the heart muscle,
leading to congestive heart failure.
If not detected and treated, heartworms can
lead to congestive heart failure and death.
Untreated heartworm disease causes damage to the heart, lungs and liver, and eventually
leads to congestive heart failure.
This leads to the congestive heart failure we described in the pathophysiology section.
In the most severe forms, heart disease can
lead to congestive heart failure (fluid build - up) as the heart muscle can no longer pump efficiently.
Either condition can
lead to congestive heart failure (CHF), which owners may first observe as coughing and shortness of breath.
This is a disease of a part of the heart and
leads to congestive heart failure and there is no treatment.
This type of disease, if left untreated, can
lead to congestive heart failure and even death.
When she eats the bacteria will be released into the bloodstream and it can be lodged on the lining of the heart (endocarditis) and can eventually
lead to congestive heart failure.
Heart Disease: Old age can bring on heart problems, which can
lead to congestive heart failure.
This condition can
lead to congestive heart failure.
