Urinary NT-proBNP: A Useful Biomarker for the Diagnosis of Respiratory Distress in the Neonatal Population

To determine the diagnostic accuracy of urinary NT-proBNP levels in the detection and classification of the severity of respiratory distress in neonates after birth. We compared the urinary NT- proBNP levels between the respiratory distress (RD) group and the control group on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th d...

Zusammenfassung:To determine the diagnostic accuracy of urinary NT-proBNP levels in the detection and classification of the severity of respiratory distress in neonates after birth. We compared the urinary NT- proBNP levels between the respiratory distress (RD) group and the control group on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th day of life (DOL). The RD group (55 neonates) showed higher levels of NT-proBNP compared to the control group (63 neonates) on DOL1 (585.4 pg/ml vs 396.1 pg/ml (p=0.014)), DOL3 (805.1 pg/ml vs 271.9 pg/ml (p
