My Heart Is Pushing Blood Out Of The Left Ventricle

My heart is pushing blood out of the left ventricle at a 20% rate, rather than the normal 50-60% rate. I just started some meds.
What are the odds function improves? And is this problem imminently life threatening?
Will an implanted defibulator help? And for how long?
