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 ...

Advanced heart failure is when heart failure progresses to the most severe stage. When you have advanced heart failure, your blood pressure, blood flow, kidney and liver function, exercise capacity, ...

When the heart can no longer pump blood efficiently throughout the body, kidney function issues are among the first complications to develop. Congestive heart failure (CHF), a condition that reflects ...

It is a common perception that approximately 50% of heart failure (HF) patients present with a normal or near-normal left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ("HF with preserved systolic function"), ...

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) ...
