FAQ’s

frequently asked questions

What are the symptoms of end-stage heart failure?

End-stage heart failure is marked by severe breathlessness, fatigue, swelling in the legs or abdomen, and difficulty performing even basic activities. Patients may also experience persistent coughing, irregular heartbeats, confusion, and reduced appetite. These symptoms indicate a significant decline in heart function, often requiring intensive medical or palliative support.

At what stage is palliative care offered?

Palliative care is typically introduced in the advanced stages of heart failure when symptoms become difficult to manage with standard therapies. It can also begin earlier for symptom relief, emotional support, and to improve quality of life, especially in cases with frequent hospitalizations or declining functional capacity.

Can you live with 25% heart function?

Living with a 25% ejection fraction is possible but often requires strict medical management, lifestyle modifications, and close monitoring. Patients may experience limitations in physical activity and daily functioning. Comprehensive treatment plans, including medications, device support, or palliative care, are essential to maintain stability and comfort.
