Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical effect and prognosis of plasma N -terminal probrain natriuret-ic peptide (NT -proBNP)and 6 min walk test performance (6 -MWT)in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods 100 patients with CHF were selected as observation group,and 50 healthy people were selected as control group.They were grouped by NYHA degree,28 cases were NYHA Ⅱ,56 cases were NYHA Ⅲ and 16 cases were NYHA Ⅳ.The plasma level of NT -proBNP,6 -MWT,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),early diastolic peak mitral flow velocity to late diastolic peak mitral flow velocity (E /A)were measured.Results The plasma NT -proBNP level of CHF patients was positively correlated with NYHA degree (r =0.683,P <0.01);6 -MWT was neg-atively correlated with NYHA degree(r =-0.518,P <0.01).For CHF patients,significant correlation was observed between NT -proBNP and 6 -MWT (r =-0.789,P <0.05).Plasma NT -proBNP level was correlated with dias-tolic HF,systolic HF and mixed type heart failure (r =-0.678,P <0.01;r =-0.845,P <0.01;r =-0.759,P <0.01).Conclusion Plasma NT -proBNP,6 -MWT can serve as a marker for the detection and evaluation of heart failure.Meanwhile,the higher the NT -proBNP level,the shorter the 6 -MWT,the more serious the heart failure,the poorer the prognosis.
