About Me: Please use this space to tell the community about yourself and your unique experience with transplantation:
I was born with a condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. I had my heart transplant when I was 6 weeks old on May 12, 1989. Since then I have been pretty well. Every time I went in to do a Heart Cath and Biopsy everything looked fine until I was about 9 and had major rejection for the first time. Since then I have had major rejection about 4 times. I am so blessed to have lived this long without needing a second transplant.

Taken from Wikipedia:


In cardiovascular physiology, ejection fraction (Ef) is the fraction of blood pumped out of a ventricle with each heart beat. The term ejection fraction applies to both the right and left ventricles; one can speak equally of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and the right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF). Without a qualifier, the term ejection fraction refers specifically to that of the left ventricle. Its reverse operation is the injection fraction.

Healthy individuals typically have ejection fractions between 50% and 65%.[1] However, normal values depend upon the modality being used to calculate the ejection fraction. Damage to the muscle of the heart (myocardium), such as that sustained during myocardial infarction or in cardiomyopathy, impairs the heart's ability to eject blood and therefore reduces ejection fraction. This reduction in the ejection fraction can manifest itself clinically as heart failure.

The ejection fraction is one of the most important predictors of prognosis; those with significantly reduced ejection fractions typically have poorer prognoses.

Laura....I have had cadiomyopathy since 2001 and had a pacemaker implanted at that time. In 2006, it got much worse and I now have a newer pacemaker called a biventricular plus a defibrillator...have had this one 2 years but I keep getting worse. My ejection fraction is 20.
