ABSTRACT
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), particularly due to ischemic cardiomyopathy, remains a challenging clinical condition with high morbidity and poor prognosis. Standard pharmacological and device-based therapies offer significant benefit, but a subset of patients remains symptomatic with minimal improvement in cardiac function. Panchakarma, the classical detoxification and rejuvenation system in Ayurveda, is increasingly being investigated for its supportive role in chronic cardiovascular conditions.
