I'm really worried because I've been told that my heart efficiency fraction is only at 30. Is there anything I can do to improve that and increase my chances of survival? Let me know what steps I can take.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
improving the survival rate with a 30% ejection fraction (low EF) is possible with a combination of medical treatment, lifestyle changes, device therapy, and careful monitoring. Close collaboration with your healthcare team is essential to managing heart function, preventing complications, and improving quality of life. Always follow the guidance of your cardiologist for the most appropriate treatment options based on your specific condition.
