Module 9: Advance Care Planning

This module provides information on the three types of heart failure. Left-sided systolic failure, in which the left ventricle can’t contract as it should; left-sided diastolic failure, in which the left ventricle can’t relax the way it should; and right-sided heart failure, in which the right ventricle can’t contract as it should. Learn how the treatment you'll receive depends on the type(s) of heart failure you have.
