I'm looking at my echocardiography report and I'm a bit worried. It says things like IVSTD 03 mm, LVPWD 07 mm, LVIDd 70 mm, FS 13, LVIDs 61 mm, and EF 28. I'm not sure what all of that means, but I'm concerned about whether these measurements are okay. Am I actually fit? Can you help me understand this?

Based on your echocardiography report, it indicates that you have a reduced ejection fraction (EF) of 28%, which is below the normal range (55-70%). This may indicate a decrease in the pumping function of your heart. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, you may be prescribed medications such as Carvedilol

What could be causing it, and are there any specific treatments for it? I'm trying to understand if there are any risks involved and if I need to take any precautions. Would love some insight!

I'm kind of confused and a bit worried about my recent ECG results. The cardiologist mentioned something about needing to "correlate clinically" with the results. Could you help me understand what that means? I've got my report here and I'm just trying to figure out what I should be doing next.
it is normal

I'm really worried about my 62-year-old diabetic relative. He's had angina for over a year, and his ECG showed some troubling signs like a Q wave with T wave inversion. The echocardiogram was apparently normal, but the treadmill test came back positive, and the coronary angiogram revealed triple vessel coronary artery disease. He's stable now, thankfully, but they recommended PCI for the LCx and RCA. I'm just wondering what all this really means and where would be the best place for him to get this treatment? I'm feeling a bit lost here.
If he is having triple vessel disease,he needs to u dergo Bypass surgery if not there is higher risk of sudden cardiac arrest, visit Cardiologist and follow their advice
