Per the article I found this:
"A normal ejection fraction is 50% to 70%. This means that between 50% and 70% of the blood in the heart is pumped out with each heartbeat. When that number falls, especially below 40%, it can indicate a significant problem with the heart muscle. Learn more about ejection fraction."
I know before I had my septal myectomy my EF was 76%, which is high. 79% is very high too! It means your heart is working hard to keep your EF up.
Hope this helps!
