Brief Answer:
please see below.

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir
The ECHO report is suggestive of enlargement of heart and decrease in its pumping. This may result from a number of disease processes. High blood pressure for a long period may be one reason. Obstruction of blood vessels of heart may be other. Angiogram may help in deciding this if your doctor find any indication to do it.
Good control of blood pressure, low salt diet, diuretics, vasodilators are helpful. Hope you are receiving guideline based therapy.
Feel free to discuss further.
Sincerely

Sukhvinder
