Both UIC and UIUC's medical schools are the same and the college of nursing as well. Yes, but for undergrad there is no comparison. I graduated from UIC and the only difference is when you receive your diploma is one says board of trustees at Chicago/Urbana And that one word is a huge difference.
congenital disease in which the aorta is narrowed; causes reduced systemic circulation and fluid accumulation in the lungs. congestive heart failure. chronic condition characterized by the inability of the left ventricle to pump enough blood through the body to adequately supply the systemic tissues.
Heart failure is a clinical syndrome characterized by systemic perfusion inadequate to meet the body's metabolic demands as a result of impaired cardiac pump function. This may be further subdivided into systolic or diastolic heart failure. In systolic heart failure, there is reduced cardiac contractility, whereas in diastolic heart failure there is impaired cardiac relaxation and abnormal ventricular filling (Figures 1A and 1B). The most common cause of heart failure is left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction (about 60% of patients).
