There are 2 types of heart failure
left ventricular failure and right ventricular failure. Heart failure can be caused by heart disease, such as narrowing of the arteries supplying the heart, heart muscle disease, heart valve disease, high blood pressure, inflammation and infection of the heart muscle or heart valves, congenital heart disease, arrhythmia, exposure to various toxins such as methamphetamine, alcohol consumption and alcohol.
