and what does the injectin fraction need to be ?
Will the use of the drug Eplerenone 25 cause at least a marginal increase in EF over the years.?
The ejection fraction (EF) is the percent of blood pumped into circulation with each heartbeat. Normal is 50 to 70%., below 29% is considered heart failure range meaning the heart may not be pumping enough blood to meet the blood/oxygen demand. Under that condition there would/should be shortage of breath with any exertion and sometimes there is chest pain (angina).
There are people that function well with an EF below 29% as the symptoms are controlled by a system that has successfully compensated. Depending on the underlying cause you may be able to increase your EF.
