A member asked:
What is preserved right ventricular and left ventricular functions with ejection fraction calculated at 53%. what is trivial-to-small circumferential pericardial effusion and mild tricuspid & pulmonic insufficiency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
An ejection fraction of "53%" is normal, but with even mild tricuspid and pulmonic valve insufficiency, the increased load on the ventricles may eventually cause congestive heart disease. Consult a cardiac surgeon to evaluate when/if a surgical correction might be necessary.
