Amplified cardiac B-natriuretic peptide (BNP) expression results from ventricular volume or pressure overload. Clinicians have used BNP levels when evaluating cardiac performance in patients with varied clinical conditions. We report a case in which BNP levels helped guide early catheterization intervention in a patient after stage 1 Norwood palliation.
心脏B型利钠肽(BNP)表达增强是心室容量或压力超负荷所致。临床医生在评估各种临床状况患者的心脏功能时会检测BNP水平。我们报告了1例在诺伍德一期姑息手术后,BNP水平有助于指导早期导管介入治疗的病例。
