Background
The N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a 76 amino acid N-terminal fragment of brain natriuretic peptide.Both BNP and NT-proBNP levels in the blood are used for screening, diagnosis of acute congestive heart failure (CHF) and may be useful to establish prognosis in heart failure, as both markers are typically higher in patients with worse outcome.BNP may be a useful screening tool for left ventricular dysfunction in patients with history suggestive of heart disease and be used to assist in forming a pretest probability, which in turn could greatly assist in appropriateness of patient referral and in optimization of drug therapy.
