Article Synopsis
- A 61-year-old male with a history of emphysema, obstructive sleep apnea, and hypertension experienced worsening shortness of breath and swelling, leading to an ER visit.
- He showed symptoms of heart failure, including elevated jugular veins and fluid retention, and tests revealed a significantly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) suggestive of left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC).
- The patient was treated according to heart failure guidelines, monitored for arrhythmias, and discharged with a wearable defibrillator, with plans for future evaluation for an implantable defibrillator for primary prevention.
