Yes. I have congestive dilated cardiomyopathy. In 2006 my EF was 125. My cardiologist prescribed beta blockers and meds to lower my BP.
Now my EF is 135-140. I rest a lot and watch my diet carefully.

Does an increased afterload reduce the heart's ejection fraction?
Yes
What happens to the fraction if the numerator is increased?
If the numerator of the fraction is increased and the denominator doesn't change, then the value of the fraction increases.
The numerator of a fraction is one less than it's denominator and if both are increased by four the new fraction would be 18 more than the original fraction what was the original fraction?
its 1 over 3 its 1 over 3
What is the opposite of low?
The opposite would be high, with specific terms being raised, increased, or elevated.
The numerator of a fraction is 3 times the denominator If the numerator is decreased by 1 and the denominator is increased by 2 the resulting fraction is 5 over 2 what is the original fraction?
let the denominator=x then numerator=3x Thus the fraction=3x/x now according to given condition if the numerator is decreased by 1 and denominator increased by 2 the new fraction would be 3x-1/x+2 which will be equal to 5/2 thus 3x-1/x+2=5/2 2(3x-1)=5(x+2) 6x-2=5x+10 x=12 thus the original fraction is 3(12)/12=36/12 Check:36-1/12+2=35/14=5/2:)
Does an increased afterload reduce the heart's ejection fraction?
Yes
What are the causes of lowered ejection fraction?
Ejection fraction is Stroke Volume/end-diastolic volume. This is a measure of the amount of blood ejected from the left ventricle each beat. Things that can lower this ejection fraction are: Damage to the heart muscle (heartattack) Weak muscle Lack of muscle (dilated cardiomyopathy) Low fluid volume CHF....
What is ejection fraction forty to forty five percent of left ventricle mean?
The ejection fraction is a measure of how much blood the heart can pump. The left ejection fraction is how much blood the heart can pump out into the body (as opposed to into the lungs.) 40-50% is a below-normal ejection fraction.
Cardiomyopathy is caused by?
many many many things. but the definition of cardiomyopathy is a low ejection fraction... under 50%.
What does the ejection fraction show?
The ejection fraction is the percentage of the volume of a heart chamber, usually the left ventricle, that is transferred after compression.
What is lowgll bladder ejection fraction?
43%
Is normal a ejection fraction of 50-55 percent?
no
What is a normal ejection fraction?
Just a guess 67%
What can increase ejection fraction?
increase ef from 45% to 55% how
What does the reading of 30 EF man in medical term?
It depends on the context, but it could mean a 30% ejection fraction. If it does mean ejection fraction, anything under 50% is considered abnormal.
Is 37 percent ejection fraction good or bad?
borderline bad
Does someone survive an ejection fraction of less than 5 percent?
No
