Abstract:
2016.0 ng/L group (n=85) and followed up for average 371 days (90-540 d).Cardiac death or decompensated heart failure(HF) readmission were counted as advease events end-point for the purpose of this analysis.Results At follow up,76 patients had the cardiac events (26 patients died from cardiovascular causes and 50 patients being rehospitalization).No differences in admission NT-proBNP between patients with and without cardiovascular events.However,patients with high pre-discharge NT-proBNP(3872.0 vs 1306.0 ng/L,P
