Cardiac asthma: Both refer to symptoms that are usually interpreted as pulmonary in origin, but found to be from increased fluid in the lung from congestion from heart failure.

Fluids at lung : Cardiac cough can comes at night as part of the paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea from chf. Cardiac asthma is bronchospasm/wheezing from pulmonary interstitial fluid accumulation from chf.
