What is heart failure?
Heart failure means the heart isn’t pumping as well as it should. As a result, the body may not get the oxygen it needs.

Know Your Heart Health Numbers
Tracking your heart health numbers can help you

as ejection fraction, cholesterol, blood pressure, blood
sugar, kidney function, and body weight provide
important information about your heart health and
heart failure risk. Learn what each number means for
your heart and how you can discuss it with your
healthcare team.
