    A 55-year-old male with a history of heart problems since childhood experienced decompensated heart failure likely due to his lifestyle as a smoker and alcohol consumer. His predisposing factors like male gender and prior heart condition combined with precipitating lifestyle factors led to conditions such as hypertension, cardiomegaly, and cardiomyopathy that ultimately caused abnormal fluid buildup in his lungs and inadequate oxygen supply, resulting in moderate heart failure.
