Cause of death was cardiac asthma. That is not a form of asthma. It's a type of coughing or wheezing that occurs with left heart failure.
If the symptoms are severe enough, the wheezing can be a medical emergency. Heart failure can cause fluid to build up in the lungs and in and around the airways.
Mitral Systolic refers to the regurgitation of the blood back through the heart valves.
