DIAGNOSIS
Differential Diagnosis:

Clinical Diagnosis : CHF NYHA Stage IV
Anatomical Diagnosis : cardiomegaly
Etiological : hypertensive heart disease

TREATMENT
Non-Pharmacological Treatment:
a. Oxygen 2-4L via Nasal Cannula
b. Lifestyle Changes
1. Heart-healthy Diet: Eat an overall healthy dietary pattern that emphasizes a
variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy products, skinless
poultry and fish, nuts and legumes, and non-tropical vegetable oils. Also, limit
saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium, red meat, sweets and sugar-sweetened
beverages.
2. Aim for a Healthy Weight: Being obese means that there is more body fat within
the body. With an increase in weight the patient is more likely to develop other
complications like coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes,
breathing problems, and certain cancers. Health professionals recommend losing 5
to 10 percent of the patient's initial weight over the course of about 6 months. A
loss of just 3 to 5 percent of the patient's current weight can lower triglycerides and
glucose levels in the blood, as well as lower the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Losing more than 3 to 5 percent can improve blood pressure readings, lower bad
LDL cholesterol, and increase good HDL cholesterol.

Pharmacological Treatment:
1. Furosemide: A diuretic which increase urination to help the kidneys eliminate
excess fluid from the body.
2. Candesartan: An Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker that help relax blood vessels,
which lowers blood pressure and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood.
3. Digoxin: A drug that increases the strength and efficiency of heart contractions,
and is useful in the treatment of heart failure and control the rate and rhythm of the
heart.
4. Clopidogrel: An antiplatelet drug which works by blocking platelets from
sticking together and prevents them from forming harmful clots which could lead
to a heart attack or stroke. It helps keep blood flowing smoothly in your body.
