My Mother Has LVEF 40–50% and THR Due Before February 2026 : What Should Do?

Hello,

We understand your concern about your mother's health.

An LVEF (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction) of 40–50% indicates that the heart's pumping function is mildly to moderately reduced. Depending on her symptoms and the underlying heart condition, the cardiologist may recommend medications, lifestyle modifications, regular follow-ups, and further investigations. If she experiences chest pain, shortness of breath, swelling in the legs, severe fatigue, or dizziness, she should be evaluated by a Cardiologist as soon as possible.

You also mentioned that her THR (Total Hip Replacement) is planned before February 2026. Before undergoing hip replacement surgery, it is important that her heart condition is properly assessed and optimized. The Cardiologist and Orthopaedic Surgeon will work together to determine whether she is fit for surgery and what precautions are needed.

Regarding physiotherapy, it can be beneficial for improving mobility and strengthening the muscles around the hip. However, the type and intensity of physiotherapy should be started only after the treating doctor or physiotherapist advises it, considering her heart condition and hip problem.

Kindly share

• Your city and state.

• Your mother's age.

• What is the reason for the Total Hip Replacement (THR)? (Fracture, arthritis, avascular necrosis, etc.)

• Does she have Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY) or any health insurance?

Based on these details, we will help you connect with the most suitable specialists and partner hospital for your mother's treatment.
