N-terminal pro-b-type natriuretic peptide (nt-pro-bnp) as outcome predictor after cardiac surgery (CS)

چکیده
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 vascular disease, and chronic pulmonary disease, were excluded. Data, including perioperative and outcome data, were collected daily for 5 days. The postoperative complications were reflected by inotropic and vasoactive drugs used, postoperative acute renal failure, and mechanical ventilation time longer than 24 hours. The results were reported as median (interquartile range).

Background and purpose: Preeclampsia is a serious condition in pregnancy. Previous studies have shown that NT-pro BNP level is higher in preeclamptic patients than that in pregnant women with normal blood pressure. Severity of preeclampsia is one of the critical factors in managing patients, so, this study aimed at investigating the relationship between the level of NT-pro BNP and severity of ...
