I'm really worried about my mom. Her recent reports showed that her heart's LVEF is just 18. Could you suggest ways to increase it? Shes between 18 to 60 years old. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm really confused about my ECG results. It said there was a downslope in the ST segment and T wave inversion, and they mentioned something about infero-lateral ischaemia. When I went for a pre-employment medical exam, I had an echocardiogram and a color Doppler test, and the doctor said not to worry but didn't prescribe any medication. I'm not sure what to do next. Is there actually ischaemia, or is everything okay?

the ST segment downslope and T wave inversion indicate infero lateral Ischaemia. Since you have already undergone an ECHOCARDIOGRAM and color Doppler test, and the doctor mentioned that there is nothing to worry about, it is likely that the Ischaemia is not severe and does not require immediate medication. However, it is important to follow up with regular check-ups to monitor your heart health. If you experience any symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
