In the case of left-sided heart failure, blood backs up into the lung circuit. You would expect Mr. Kalani to have pulmonary direct result of this edema.

<h3>The effects of Left-sided heart failure</h3>

Left-sided heart failure occurs when the heart becomes unable to pump blood to the whole body. This is because the heart can not handle the blood that is coming from the lungs.

When left-sided heart failure occurs, fluid leaks from the affected capillaries into the nearby tissues of the lungs circuit leading to pulmonary edema.

Excess fluid in the tissues is called edema and in the case of a left-sided heart failure, other parts of the body such as the feet, legs and ankle are equally swollen.
