Explanation / Answer

4. Right side congestive heart failure leads to edema in legs and foot. Right side supplies blood to lungs. If it gets interrupted it disruots pressure of arteries and veins leading to fluid accumulation in foot.

5. It happens due to leakage in bicuspid or mitral valve.

6. These calcium blockers may affect conducting ability of SA and AV node hence affecting heart beat rate.

7. Hyperventilation doesn't work because it delays breathing because of reduced carbon dioxide concentration but generates a condition of low oxygen in body. Low carbon dioxide induces late breathing but by that time oxygen deprivation leads to blackout.
