Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

    Last Updated: October 13, 2024

    Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is the capacity of the heart to 'pulse' blood out of cardiac tissue and into circulation, and is a biomarker of cardiac health. The reduction in LVEF seen during cardiac ailments tends to be a focus of rehabilitation.
