Congestive heart failure is a condition that happens when the heart is not able to pump enough blood to meet the needs of the body’s tissues. When the heart fails, it is unable to pump out all the blood that enters its chambers. In other words, all the blood that is pumped to the body is returned to the heart. So in result organs such as: the liver, lungs, etc., get congested or flooded …

…to give someone that has CHF nitroglycerin. Because when someone has CHF their heart is weak and does not need nitroglycerin what they might need is Diuretics, which would lessen the volume of fluid that is congested in the organs. Nitroglycerin would only help dilate veins and arteries, when instead someone with CHF wou! ld need some kind of drug that would help the heart pump blood through out the body’s organs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
