A member asked:

What does mild lvh mean? & what does very dynamic systolic function mean? on copy of my medical record.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thickened heart: LVH stands for left ventricular hypertrophy. The LV is thicker than normal. Most common reason is high blood pressure. There r other possible reasons ie diabetes, heart valve problems, genetic heart disease. The hyperdynamic term means the contraction is more vigorous than normal owing to the thickness. I suggest a consultation with a cardiologist for further eval/treatment
