Artwork of lung oedema in heart failure

Lung oedema in heart failure. Illustration showing leakage of fluid (oedema) into the lung due to heart failure. A magnified circle shows one of the lungs air sacs filled with fluid. The large red vessel is the aorta, the main artery taking blood from the heart to the body. To its left is the vena cava (blue), which brings blood back. To its right is the pulmonary artery (blue), which takes blood to the lungs. At top left is the windpipe, shown leading to airways in the lung. Heart fail- ure is when the heart fails to empty itself fully with each beat, causing a backflow of pressure ag- ainst the pulmonary vein. This results in fluid leaking into the lungs, with symptoms like asthma

Alveolus Asthma Cardiac Heart Failure Lung Oedema Pulmonary Condition Disorder Health Care


EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the intricate details of lung edema in heart failure. The illustration vividly portrays the leakage of fluid, known as edema, into the lungs due to a malfunctioning heart. A magnified circle within the image reveals one of the lung's air sacs filled with fluid, highlighting the severity of this condition. The main artery responsible for carrying blood from the heart to the body, called the aorta, is depicted as a prominent red vessel. Adjacent to it lies the vena cava in blue, which brings blood back to be reoxygenated. On its other side is another blue vessel known as the pulmonary artery that transports blood specifically to and from the lungs. Atop left corner showcases an anatomical representation of windpipe leading towards airways within our respiratory system. This comprehensive visual presentation allows viewers to comprehend how heart failure leads to inadequate pumping action causing pressure build-up against pulmonary veins resulting in fluid seepage into delicate lung tissues. Heart failure manifests itself through symptoms akin to asthma due to compromised breathing caused by excessive accumulation of fluids in these vital organs. This remarkable piece serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as an educational tool for medical professionals and individuals seeking knowledge about cardiac health conditions such as left ventricular failure and pulmonary edema. Authored by Science Photo Library, this print exemplifies their commitment towards promoting scientific understanding while bridging artistry with medicine without any commercial intentions involved.
