Heart Failure (BB)

Purpose and outline

Heart Failure is when the heart is unable to pump blood around the body because the heart has become too weak or stiff. Some support is needed to help it work better. It is a long term condition that needs to be controlled with lifestyle changes, medicine, devices and potentially surgery. Read more on the NHS website.
