2025年1月29日 · A left ventricle (LV) ejection fraction of about 50% to 70% is categorized as normal. A mildly reduced LV ejection fraction is usually between 41% and 49%. A reduced LV ejection fraction is usually 40% or less. Even if your ejection fraction is OK, your overall heart function may not be healthy.

2025年1月21日 · Ejection fraction. Ejection fraction is a measurement of the percentage of blood leaving your heart each time it squeezes. This measurement is taken during an echocardiogram. The result helps classify heart failure and guides treatment. An ejection fraction of 50% or higher is considered ideal. But you can still have heart failure even if the ...

2015年5月20日 · Nearly half of all patients with heart failure have a normal ejection fraction (EF). The prevalence of this syndrome, termed heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), continues to increase in the developed world, likely because of the increasing prevalence of common risk factors, including older age, female sex, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, renal …

The left ventricle can't squeeze as strong as it should. The heart isn't strong enough to pump enough blood to the body. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), also called diastolic heart failure

2023年8月15日 · The following are some common indicators for referring to an advanced heart failure center: Left ventricular ejection fraction less than 35%. New York Heart Association Class III to IV functional status. Two or more hospital admissions in the last year. Increased left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (6.5 cm or greater).

2024年4月4日 · High blood pressure is a risk factor for heart disease. Limiting salt and sodium is a key part of a heart-healthy diet. The American Heart Association recommends that adults: Have no more than 2,300 milligrams (mg) of sodium a day. That's about a teaspoon of salt. Ideally have no more than 1,500 mg of sodium a day
