Diagnostic Value of NT-pro BNP Biomarker and Echocardiography in Cardiac Involvements in Beta-thalassemia Patients
Background N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a marker to evaluate the cardiac involvement in thalassemia. We aimed to evaluate conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography findings and its relation to plasma NT-pro BNP, Ferritin and Iron levels in beta-thalassemia patients. Materials and Methods This study performed on 164 participants equal of major beta- thalassemi...
متن کاملPrediction of Perioperative Cardiac Events through Preoperative NT-pro-BNP and cTnI after Emergent Non-Cardiac Surgery in Elderly Patients
OBJECTIVES Clinical risk stratification has an important function in preoperative evaluation of patients at risk for cardiac events prior to non-cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to determine whether the combined measurement of pre-operative N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) could provide useful prognostic information about postoperativ...
متن کاملN-terminal pro-b-type natriuretic peptide (nt-pro-bnp) as outcome predictor after cardiac surgery (CS)
Methods A prospective, descriptive study for 4 months (period: Oct 2014 Jan 2015) in patients (pts.) admitted to our ICU. We included adults undergoing emergent, elective or semi-urgent heart valve replacement, coronary artery bypass grafting, and aortic aneurysm surgery. The pts. with chronic diseases that can increase the baseline NT-PRO-BNP level like chronic kidney disease, peripheral vascu...
متن کاملDiagnostic Value of N Terminal Pro B Type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-pro BNP) in Cardiac Involvement in Patients with Beta- Thalassemia
Background Heart failure is a major cause of death in thalassemia. The study aimed to determine the diagnostic value of N Terminal Pro B Type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-pro BNP), to early diagnose the cardiac involvement in beta- thalassemia major patients. Materials and Methods 80 thalassemia patients aged 7 to 18 years old (patients group), and 80 healthy age and gender matched controls were ...
متن کاملIs NT-pro-BNP predictive of atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery?
I am very glad to see that Dr Shih et al. reportedmy case of haemomediastinum caused by a ruptured bronchial artery aneurysm [1]. This is one of the bronchial arterial embolisation cases that I performed during October 2006. However, I have to point out a misinterpretation of Fig. 1 of this article [1]. The location the arrow is pointing to is actually the superior vena cava (SVC) with streak a...
