Clinical diagnosis is based on an understanding of the underlying anatomy. When a patient explains
their history and symptoms, they are giving the clinician hints about the anatomy and how it
functions. For each of the following, a symptom will be given, along with an anatomical explanation
for that symptom. Please indicate if the following explanation is an accurate (true) description of
the anatomy and the cause of the symptom listed:
48. Peripheral swelling: Right sided heart failure can lead to peripheral swelling because the blood
that should be propelled through the aorta to the rest of the body, via the right ventricle, is
instead backed up to the lungs
49. Shortness of breath: If the mitral valve is not functioning properly, the patient can experience
shortness of breath due to the blood backing up into the left atrium each time the left ventricle
contracts, causing the blood to move backwards into the pulmonary veins and eventually the
lungs. T
