cardiac cirrhosis, nutmeg liver are seen in what type of heart failure?
RHF
2 cardinal sign of hf
fatigue and shortness of breath
Symptom of advanced hf,
apnea - hyperventilation - hypocapnia
diminished CO2 sensitivity of respiratory center
Cheyne-Stokes respiration
heart sound that is physiologic in children but pathologic in >40
