This patient both has left-sided heart failure and right-sided heart failure. In left-sided heart failure, this patient exhibits increasing shortness of breath on exertion as well as three pillow orthopnea which indicates pulmonary congestion. This is because of pooling of blood in the pulmonary circulation. Bipedal edema, in this patient is a grade 2 bipedal edema, reflect right-sided heart failure as there is pooling of blood in the systemic circulation, causing transudation in the most dependent areas of the body.

Why do humans, as one of many on this planet, have the greatest potential to impact all other species?
sdas [7]
Because our brains are the most developed out of all of the other species on this planet. Also, we require the most maintenance to survive. We can’t live in the ocean, such as a fish, shark, dolphin, etc. but we also can’t live in the forest such as bears, deer, coyotes, etc. we need to live in a stable environment when we will have enough food to survive as well to live in certain temperatures that are best suited for our kind. Hopefully that helped a little bit
