Question

Four causes of impaired left ventricle systolic function?

A) Coronary artery disease, hypertension, myocarditis, valvular heart disease
B) Diabetes, obesity, hyperlipidemia, smoking
C) Pulmonary embolism, atrial fibrillation, anemia, hyperthyroidism
D) Chronic kidney disease, liver cirrhosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, rheumatoid arthritis

Answer 1

The four causes of impaired left ventricle systolic function are coronary artery disease, hypertension, myocarditis, and valvular heart disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

The four causes of impaired left ventricle systolic function are:

1. Coronary artery disease: This is caused by atherosclerosis and risk factors like high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, lack of exercise, obesity, high blood cholesterol, poor diet, and excessive alcohol consumption.
2. Hypertension (high blood pressure): High blood pressure can lead to left ventricle hypertrophy and impaired systolic function.
3. Myocarditis: Inflammation of the heart's muscle tissue can lead to impaired left ventricle function.
4. Valvular heart disease: Malfunction of the heart valves, whether congenital or acquired, can impair left ventricle function.
