I know a little about EF (Ejection Function) and how 65 is like the top of the range.
So how is it possible for an EF to be 72 before surgery?
Anybody know?

Freddie, I think that part that has you confused is you're thinking of the top of the "normal" range, not what is possible for EF. So it's possible to be above or below "normal" especially before surgery, when as Adrienne said depending on what and where the problem is, your heart has to work harder so can go above the normal EF to try and compensate for the narrowing to push the blood thru
.................. Guess my heart was just compensating from the damaged mitral valve.
