Ejection Fraction: 50-75%- Heart's pumping ability is Normal
Ejection Fraction: 36-49%- Heart's pumping ability is Below Normal
Ejection Fraction: 35% and below- Heart's pumping ability is Low

It is important to note that low ejection fractions caused by conditions such as heart failure or cardiomyopathy are rarely cured. Treatment is therefore focused on reducing symptoms and preventing the progress of the disease involved from worsening. Certain strategies include lifestyle changes, medications and procedures, such as the insertion of an implantable defibrillator (ICD).

Can heart palpitations be caused by stress, or something else?

Bishwajeet Singh

Yes, stress can cause heart palpitations because when you are stressed, your body releases a hormone called adrenaline which makes your heart beat faster. But, it could be something else too like too much caffeine or alcohol, certain medications, asthma inhalers, dehydration and other health issues.....
