Sentences with phrase «ejection fraction increased»

Not exact matches

Iron deficiency is present in approximately 50 percent of patients with heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF; ejection fraction: a measure of how well the left ventricle of the heart pumps with each contraction) and is associated with reduced functional capacity, poorer quality of life, and increased mortality.

The control group did not experience the same increase in heart ejection fraction.

• increased left ventricular ejection fraction (11, 12) • improved exercise tolerance (12, 13, 14) • increased cardiac output (15) • better prognosis for patients with chronic heart failure (16) • lowered markers of oxidative stress (17, 18)
