In a medical report about a patient with coronary heart disease, the diagnosis states:
'Herzinsuffizienz (rechtsführend)'
What does 'rechtsführend' indicate?
That only the right ventricle is affected?
That it is predominantly the right ventricle that is affected?
Or something else?
Thanks in advance.

According to this article:
***Bei gleichzeitig bestehender peripherer arterieller Verschlußkrankheit rechts führend (Stadium IIb-III)mit langstreckigem Verschluß der A. femoralis superficialis*** erfolgte in gleicher Sitzung die Implantation eines femoropoplitealen Bypasses mit supraglenuidalem Anschluß rechts
The implantation of a femoropopliteal bypass with anastomosis in the first popliteal segment was done during the same operation ***due to a long-distance occlusion of the superficial femoral artery on the right side.***

Comment: "As I was trying to establish what, if anything, the 'führend' part of rechtsführend adds to the meaning, I'm choosing this answer because rechtsführend is used in the link.
Thanks to all who responded though."

right ventricular failure
Not having more context I am guessing.
Rechtsherzinsuffizienz f right ventricular failure; backward failure [of the right heart]
I do not know any other term that comines "Rechts" and "Herzinsuffizienz"
