While both systolic and diastolic heart failure affect the heart’s ability to pump blood, they do so in different ways. ➡️ Systolic failure weakens the heart’s contraction ➡️ Diastolic failure affects the heart’s ability to relax and fill. Understanding these differences is key to managing heart health effectively. 💓 . . . . . #heartfailure #CHF #studentnurses #cardiacnurse #medstudent #medicaleduc

Systolic vs Diastolic Heart Failure 👉Systolic (HFrEF) presents with weak LV, low EF, and a dilated chamber. 👉Diastolic (HFpEF) presents with stiff LV, normal EF, preserved size. The new nomenclature is HFrEF and HFpEF, but they are generally related to systolic and diastolic HF. — At CardioVisual, we simplify complex cardiometabolic information into engaging, visual content for clinicians and patients alike, empowering better care through education.
