How can you raise your ejection fraction from 34%?
An ejection fraction of 34% indicates heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), which means your heart's pumping action is weaker than normal. The good news is there are several proven ways to improve this.

How can you raise your ejection fraction from 34%?
An ejection fraction of 34% indicates heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), which means your heart's pumping action is weaker than normal. The good news is there are several proven ways to improve this.
Treatment options that can help raise ejection fraction include:
* Medications specifically designed for HFrEF that have been scientifically shown to improve heart function
* Cardiac rehabilitation programs
* Lifestyle changes
* In some cases, surgical interventions
Cardiac rehabilitation has shown real results. A MyHeartDiseaseTeam member shared: "My injection fraction went from 31% to 40% doing cardiac rehab." These programs typically involve supervised exercise sessions and education about heart-healthy living.
Your cardiologist can develop a personalized treatment plan based on what's causing your heart failure. The combination of medications, cardiac rehab, and lifestyle modifications can relieve symptoms, slow disease progression, and potentially improve your ejection fraction over time.
Talk with your doctor about which treatments are right for your specific situation. They can monitor your progress and adjust your plan as needed.
