I just came across a really nice site that explains CHF and some interventions. Some people have a time figuring out cardiac stuff , and this really puts it in layman's terms. Lots of pictures and diagrams too.

You are certainly welcome. I was in ortho for 22+ years and my cardiac stuff kind of oozed away. I'm pretty sure they weren't doing angioplasties with the cath. I loved the way they explained all the different tests and procedures. Let some other folks in on this.

the first for hemodynamic monitoring

The second for pictures/diagrams/xrays (take some time to look around)
