What are the Complications of Left Ventricular Dysfunction?
Left ventricular dysfunction can lead to a range of complications, including heart failure, arrhythmias, and thromboembolic events such as stroke. Heart failure can further be classified into heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), each requiring different management approaches. Nurses should be aware of these potential complications and work closely with the healthcare team to implement appropriate preventive measures.
