Peripartum Cardiomyopathy LVEF Recovery Timeline

Estimate LVEF recovery timeline in peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). LVEF >50% at 6 months in 45-70% of patients. LVEF <30% at onset, QRS >120 ms, non-white race, and delayed diagnosis predict poor recovery.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.
