I can tell you what FS indicates. It is fractional shortening. It is a ratio of the dimension of the left ventrical at peak filling to end of the pumping cycle. Above 30% is considered normal, 26-30% represents mild decrease in ejection fraction (weaker heart contraction. I know this by memory.
I don't know the other values. With every report I have received, the report provides the normal range. That is done because each lab may may have different parameters. You may want to get the information from your doctor.
