N-terminal Pro B-type Natriuretic Peptide in the Early Evaluation of Suspected Acute Myocardial Infarction

Abstract Background Myocardial ischemia is a strong trigger of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) release. As ischemia precedes necrosis in acute myocardial infarction, we hypothesized that NT-proBNP might be useful in the early diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with s...
