LVSD (left ventricular systolic dysfunction ) is a condition in which the left ventricle of the heart is unable to contract effectively. This leads to a decrease in the delivery of oxygen and blood flow to the organs and tissues in the body. Common causes of LVSD include coronary artery disease, heart attack, and cardiomyopathy. Symptoms of LVSD may include chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, coughing, and swelling in the legs and ankles.
