EF is your ejection fraction which tells the cardiologist how much blood your heart pumps out each time it beats. There are things you can do which can help your condition - working closely with your physician to find the right combination of blood pressure medications to get these numbers down - they are way too high. The edema in your legs can often also be controlled with medication adjustments. Carrying extra fluids in your body which makes the edema can make you tired as can a low ejection fraction which means your heart does not have the capacity to pump strongly as it once did. A mild exercise program such as walking can also improve your condition - it does not have to be any long distances or at a fast past - just moving your body and your muscles will improve your overall health - talk with your doctor about all of this. There are some things that can be done to improve your overall health if you are willing to work at it.
quot;efquot; is your heart s ejection fraction which is at 40%. Normal is considered 55%-75% Ejection Fraction is the fraction of blood being pumped out of the ventricles with each heart beat. Damaged and/or weakened heart muscle will cause the EF to decrease.
ef stands for ejection fraction (google that term) It s a standard measurement of heart function, heart pumping ability, and says ALOT about the status of your heart. But, I can t remember if 40% is good or bad. I hope you feel better though...... Good luck.
EF is ejection fraction. That means if you consider what the left ventricle holds just before it contracts what is pumped out is the ef.
