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 ...

In patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and chronotropic incompetence, indexed left ventricular systolic volume (iLVESV) may predict those who could benefit most from ...

Whether revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can improve event-free survival and left ventricular function in patients with severe ischemic left ventricular systolic ...

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) ...

Among patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who have chronotropic incompetence, those with lower left ventricular systolic volume might benefit from discontinuing beta ...

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 ...
