It can occur after injury (such as a heart attack) or from long-standing stress on the heart. It is commonly discussed in cardiology because it can affect heart pumping, filling, and electrical stability. It is often assessed indirectly with imaging and clinical testing rather than being \u201cfelt\u201d directly."}
