- Roberto is a 78-year-old male who has recently been diagnosed with Class III Congestive Heart Failure (CHF). His physician told him that his left ventricle has become stiff and cannot relax. Although there is no current treatment that can “fix” Roberto’s condition, he is prescribed two medications: an ACE inhibitor and beta blockers. Which of these statements is most likely true of Roberto’s current symptoms? He doesn’t experience any symptoms at all at rest or during exercise. He has no symptoms at all during rest, but experiences palpitations, fatigues, and shortness of breath during mild exercise. He experiences fatigue, shortness of breath, and palpitations at rest and is not able to participate in any physical activity.arrow_forwardThe amount of blood forced out of the heart depends on the, (a) degree of stretching at the end of ventricular diastole.
