Myocardial dysfunction is one of the most common heart diseases and is responsible for many cardiac symptoms that cause fatigue to the patient. However, not all patients with myocardial dysfunction are at risk.
Heart muscle strength is considered normal when it is between 50% and 65%. If it is less than 50%, this is considered heart muscle weakness. One of the most important factors that determine the severity of the condition is the severity of the symptoms accompanying this weakness. If the symptoms are severe, such as a large accumulation of fluid in the body or frequent pulmonary congestions that lead to repeated hospitalizations, or if the muscle effort efficiency is low, this indicates that the condition may be advanced and pose a great risk to the patient’s life.
Also, if the percentage of heart muscle weakness is less than 35%, it is another indicator that the condition may pose a risk to the patient. But even in this case, what is most important is the severity of the accompanying symptoms.
