Evaluation 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 کاملUsefulness of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic Peptide levels for stroke risk prediction in anticoagulated patients with atrial fibrillation.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Oral anticoagulation is highly effective in reducing stroke and mortality in atrial fibrillation (AF). Several risk stratification schemes have been developed using clinical characteristics. Elevated levels of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are important markers of increased mortality and morbidity in congestive heart failure and general community p...

متن کاملN-terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide And Atrial Fibrillation
NT-proBNP is produced from both atria and ventricles. The primary regulation of production is at the synthesis level. The plasma half-life of NT-proBNP is 60-120 min. Cutoff value of NT-proBNP for diagnosis of heart failure is 125 pg/ml in the age group below 75 years and 450 pg/ml in the age group above 75 years. It increases in atrial fibrillation and drops after successful cardioversion. Hig...
متن کاملRisk assessment in patients with unstable angina/non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction and normal N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels by N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide.
AIMS To compare the accuracy of the N-terminal fragment of its pro-hormone (Nt-proBNP) and N-terminal pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (Nt-proANP) in the prediction of the 2 year mortality and to investigate whether additional measurement of Nt-proANP to troponin I (TnI) could improve risk assessment in the subgroups of patients with unstable coronary artery disease (UCAD) and normal Nt-proBNP. ...
