Péptido natriurético cerebral tipo B como marcador de sobrecarga hemodinámica del conducto arterioso permeable en el recién nacido prematuro

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 91 (1), 2021
Resumen Introducción: El ecocardiograma es el método de referencia para el diagnóstico del conducto arterioso permeable (CAP) hemodinámicamente significativo (CAP-hs) del recién nacido prematuro (RNP). El péptido natriurético tipo B (BNP) puede ser útil en el diagnóstico y el manejo del CAP-hs....

B-type natriuretic peptide levels and diagnostic accuracy: excess fluid volume

Rev. gaúch. enferm; 41 (spe), 2020
ABSTRACT Aim: To analyze the behavior of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in the presence of defining characteristics (DCs) of the nursing diagnosis Excess fluid volume (00026) in patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure. Methods: Cohort study of patients admitted with acute decompen...

The Usefulness of Admission Plasma NT-pro BNP Level to Predict Left Ventricular Aneurysm Formation after Acute ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Arq. bras. cardiol; 113 (6), 2019
Abstract Background: Left ventricular aneurysm (LVA) is an important complication of acute myocardial infarction. In this study, we investigated the role of N- Terminal pro B type natriuretic peptide level to predict the LVA development after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Me...

Correlación entre los valores séricos de NT-proBNP y el puntaje inotrópico vasoactivo máximo en las primeras 24 horas después de una intervención de cirugía cardíaca

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 89 (4), 2019
Resumen Introducción: La utilidad clínica del péptido natriurético cerebral (NT-proBNP) como marcador pronóstico en pacientes pediátricos con falla cardíaca es controversial. El puntaje inotrópico vasoactivo 24 horas después de la operación cardíaca en pacientes pediátricos es un importante ...

Mean platelet volume as a prognostic factor for venous thromboembolic disease

Rev. méd. Chile; 147 (2), 2019
ABSTRACT Background: Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a risk factor for cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Aim: To evaluate the association between high MPV and 90-day mortality after an episode of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Material and Methods: Retrospective cohort of 594 patients with a medi...

Do N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels determine the prognosis of community acquired pneumonia?

J. bras. pneumol; 45 (4), 2019
ABSTRACT Objective: Pneumonia is a leading cause of mortality worldwide, especially in the elderly. The use of clinical risk scores to determine prognosis is complex and therefore leads to errors in clinical practice. Pneumonia can cause increases in the levels of cardiac biomarkers such as N-terminal ...

Biomarkers of cardio-renal syndrome in uremic myocardiopathy animal model

J. bras. nefrol; 40 (2), 2018
ABSTRACT Introduction: Cardio-renal syndrome subtype 4 (CRS4) is a condition of primary chronic kidney disease that leads to reduction of cardiac function, ventricular hypertrophy, and risk of cardiovascular events. Objective: Our aim was to understand the mechanisms involved on the onset of CRS4. Meth...

The effect of hemodialysis on the body composition and cardiovascular disease markers in recently diagnosed end stage renal disease patients

SUMMARY AIM: Uremic toxins and excess fluid contributes to increased cardiovascular (CV) risk. We aimed to determine the body fluid status in patients who are just starting hemodialysis (HD) and to determine the effects of excess fluid removed by HD on the CV system. METHODS: A total of 52 patients wit...

Natriuretic Peptide and Clinical Evaluation in the Diagnosis of Heart Failure Hemodynamic Profile: Comparison with Tissue Doppler Echocardiography

Arq. bras. cardiol; 110 (3), 2018
Abstract Background: Physical examination and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) have been used to estimate hemodynamics and tailor therapy of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) patients. However, correlation between these parameters and left ventricular filling pressures is controversial. Objectiv...

Síndrome de Bayés en cirugía cardiaca: prevalencia de bloqueo interauricular en menores de 65 años sometidos a cirugía cardiaca y su asociación con fibrilación auricular en el postoperatorio

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 88 (5), 2018
Resumen Objetivo: El bloqueo interauricular (BIA) es una entidad asociada con un mayor riesgo de presentar fibrilación auricular (FA), constituyendo el denominado síndrome de Bayés. El objetivo de nuestro estudio fue definir la prevalencia de BIA en pacientes menores de 65 años sometidos a cirugía...
