Doctors use ejection fraction percentages to categorize left-sided heart failure. According to a 2022 article, people with HFpEF have an ejection fraction of more than 50%.

It has specific treatments depending on the type of amyloidosis, in addition to the treatments mentioned above for heart failure. Dear Dr. Roach: I am just getting over the horrible shingles.
