Congestive heart failure is a condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood throughout the body. Pulmonary edema is an abnormal buildup of fluid in the lungs. Pulmonary edema is most commonly caused by heart failure, because as the heart fails, pressure in the lung’s veins begin to increase, as the pressure increases, fluid is pushed into the air sacs of the lungs, causing the fluid to interrupt normal oxygenation. | Congestive heart failure is a condition in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood throughout the body.
