Ejection fraction (EF) measures how well the heart pumps blood. A normal ejection fraction is between 55% to 70%. A low ejection fraction can be a sign of heart failure. Ejection fraction (EF) ...

Is your heart functioning properly? There is a test which can measure this, which is often recommended by medical professionals. Ejection fraction (EF) is a measurement, expressed as a percentage, of ...

Heart failure is a heterogeneous syndrome. Approximately 30–50% of patients with heart failure have normal or near normal left ventricle function. Several epidemiological studies confirm that the ...

Participants exposed critical gaps in the diagnosis, treatment, and coordination of care for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and charted a path forward.

Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by systemic congestion and elevated left ...

The American Heart Association, a relentless force changing the future of health for everyone everywhere, is launching a new initiative to improve in-hospital care for people with heart failure with ...

BACKGROUND: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has become the most prevalent type of heart failure, a ...

This Journal feature begins with a case vignette highlighting a common clinical problem. Evidence supporting various strategies is then presented, followed by a review of formal guidelines, when they ...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a condition in which the heart does not fill with blood properly. In HFpEF, the heart can pump normally, but the heart is stiff and cannot ...
