- Abstract: Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)during gestation period in women with heart disease,and to evaluate their predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods A total of 221 pregnant women with heart disease undergoing peripartum management were enrolled and divided into adverse outcome group(n=68)and favorable outcome group(n=153)based on pregnancy outcomes.General clinical data and pregnancy outcomes were compared between two groups.Levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT were measured during early pregnancy,mid-pregnan-cy as well as late pregnancy and within 24 hours postpartum.The predictive value of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT for adverse pregnancy outcomes was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Results There was a statistically significant difference in the New York Heart Association(NYHA)cardiac function classification,left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP)between two groups(P＜0.001).In the early stage of pregnancy,the second stage of pregnancy,the third stage of pregnancy and at 24 hours after delivery,the levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT in the adverse outcome group were higher than those in the favorable outcome group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.001).The incidence of maternal complications in the adverse outcome group was higher than that in the favorable outcome group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The rates of preterm birth,low birth weight and neonatal asphyxia in the adverse outcome group were higher than those in the favorable outcome group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of NT-proBNP was 0.892(95％CI,0.845 to 0.939),the AUC of hs-cTnT was 0.857(95％CI,0.802 to 0.912),and the AUC of the combined detection of the two was 0.924(95％CI,0.885 to0.963).The NT-proBNP＞986.5 pg/mL(OR=6.85,95％CI,3.24 to 14.46)and hs-cTnT＞15.8 ng/L(OR=5.62,95％CI,3.24 to 14.46)in the third trimester 2.86 to 11.05)and NYHA class Ⅲ to Ⅳ(OR=4.28,95％CI,1.96 to 9.35)were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes.Conclusion The levels of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT during the perina-tal period in patients with pregnancy complicated with heart disease show dynamic changes.Monito-ring two indicators has important clinical value for predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes.
