Why is heart disease a medical condition that causes falls?

How does heart disease affect tissue?
Heart disease can affect body tissues by decreasing the amount of oxygen available for metabolism. For example, CHF may lead to fatigue because the heart is pumping less effectively.
Which class of drugs increases the forcefulness of the pumping of the heart but not the oxygen?
One class of drugs that increases the forcefulness of the heart's pumping without affecting oxygen consumption is positive inotropic agents, such as digoxin. These drugs improve contractility, leading to increased force of contraction and cardiac output. However, they do not change the oxygen demand of the heart.
What is the pumping organ?

Why couldn't your heart have cardiac tissue?
Cardiac muscle, like other muscles, can contract, but it can also carry an action potential (i.e. conduct electricity), like the neurons that constitute nerves. Furthermore, some of the cells have the ability to generate an action potential, known as cardiac muscle automaticity. (Some cells can make the heart beat on its own.) This doesn't occur in any other type of muscle tissue. This ability can keep the heart pumping even under disease conditions.
