    Overall heart failure rates are similar to the four most common causes of cancer (breast, lung, prostate, and colon) combined. [147] People from deprived backgrounds are more likely to be diagnosed with heart failure at a younger age. [147]

    Sleep apnea is an under-recognized risk factor for heart failure. Uncontrolled sleep apnea may increase the risk of heart failure by up to 140%. [4] Weight reduction – through physical activity and dietary modification, as obesity is a risk factor for heart failure and left ventricular hypertrophy. Effective weight management has been shown ...

    Modalities applied to measurement of ejection fraction is an emerging field of medical mathematics and subsequent computational applications. The first common measurement method is echocardiography, [7] [8] although cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), [8] [9] cardiac computed tomography, [8] [9] ventriculography and nuclear medicine (gated SPECT and radionuclide angiography) [8] [10 ...

    If other measures are not effective a heart transplant may be an option in some. [9] About 1 per 2,500 people is affected. [9] It occurs more frequently in men than women. [10] Onset is most often in middle age. [5] Five-year survival rate is about 50%. [9] It can also occur in children and is the most common type of cardiomyopathy in this age ...

    The overall rate of survival among those who have OHCA is 10%. [136] [137] Among those who have an OHCA, 70% occur at home, and their survival rate is 6%. [138] [139] For those who have an in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA), the survival rate one year from at least the occurrence of cardiac arrest is estimated to be 13%. [140]

  7. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_failure_with...

    Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a form of heart failure in which the ejection fraction – the percentage of the volume of blood ejected from the left ventricle with each heartbeat divided by the volume of blood when the left ventricle is maximally filled – is normal, defined as greater than 50%; [1] this may be measured by echocardiography or cardiac catheterization.
