What is a normal ejection fraction?

Ejection fraction is a test your doctor can use to determine the percentage of blood that leaves a ventricle each time your heart beats, and to understand how well your heart works. A normal ejection fraction range is between 52 and 72 percent for men and between 54 and 74 percent for women.

What is the ICD 10 code for CHF with reduced ejection fraction?

What is heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?

Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction happens when the muscle of the left ventricle is not pumping as well as normal. The ejection fraction is 40% or less. The amount of blood being pumped out of the heart is less than the body needs.
