depressed ejection fraction
Explanation:
See:

http://www.cardiologychannel.com/chf/causes.shtml

"Patients with an ejection fraction of approximately 40% to 45% have mildly depressed ejection fractions, those with ejection fractions of approximately 30% to 40% have moderately depressed ejection fractions, and those with ejection fractions of 10% to 25% have severely depressed ejection fractions."

This would appear to be in keeping with your earlier question...and hope it helps:-)
