N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide and subsequent hospital admission for worsening heart failure.
R ecurrent and lengthy hospitalisation is common in patients with heart failure and accounts for much of the treatment cost. This has led to interventions aimed at reducing hospitalisation, but identifying patients at risk of hospitalisation is difficult using traditional risk factors. Evidence accumulates for the value of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide...
متن کاملEvaluation of Serum Levels of N-terminal Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide in Neonates with Respiratory Distress
Background: Acute respiratory distress (ARD) is a critical respiratory failure due to lung injury of neonates leading to the clinical appearance of poor lung compliance. The aimed of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic values in differentiating respiratory from heart diseases with using of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) and Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in neonates...
متن کاملN-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide predicts outcome after hospital discharge in heart failure patients.
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is responsible for a huge burden in hospital care. Our goal was to evaluate the value of N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in predicting death or hospital readmission after discharge of HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS We included 182 patients consecutively admitted to hospital because of decompensated HF. Patients were followed up for 6 months...

متن کاملN-terminal brain natriuretic peptide as a screening tool for heart failure in the pacemaker population.
AIMS Assessment of N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-BNP) as a screening tool for heart failure in patients with a permanent pacemaker. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutive patients undergoing a routine permanent pacemaker assessment were enrolled. Patients underwent medical history and examination, echocardiography and blood sampling for NT-BNP. Analysis was performed on 261 patients (132 ...
