CAUSE

Heart failure can be caused by a variety of health conditions, such as:

Coronary heart disease, in which blood vessels that supply the heart with blood supply is blocked by fat that builds up in these blood vessels (atherosclerosis), which can cause a heart attack.

High blood pressure, which increases cardiac efforts and can cause heart failure over time.

Cardiomyopathy, a condition that affects the heart muscle.

Heart rhythm disturbances (arrhythmias), where the heart rhythm is irregular.

Damage to the heart valve or other conditions that affect the function of the heart valve.

Congenital heart disease, which can occur from birth and affect the normal functioning of the heart
