Ischaemic cardiomyopathy is a condition that arises when heart muscle is weakened because of coronary artery disease or a heart attack. Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction occurs when the left ventricle is either defective or damaged, thus disrupting healthy function. Normal LV function can be perturbed because of several causes. Some cardiac defects such as valvular malformations or conditions block the passage of blood into the body. Effective and cost-effective treatment is available for such patients that can reduce both morbidity and mortality. Herein, the authors present the case of a 69-year-old male who was brought to the emergency department with a history of hypertension on medication. Later, the patient was transferred to the cardiology department. The patient was brought to the hospital after midnight and had bleeding gums, and experienced bleeding from the site of needle puncture. Earlier reports showed that the international normalised ratio was &gt;6.0, and the 2D echocardiogram showed large LV blood clots, mild LV dysfunction, mild mitral regurgitation, and aortic valve stenosis. Finally, the patient was diagnosed with ischaemic cardiomyopathy associated with LV dysfunction. During discharge, the patient and patient’s representative were counselled in layman’s language about the conditions and prognosis of the disease, the use and adherence to medications, lifestyle modifications, and were advised to review back to the cardiologist.
