ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the stroke patients with heart failure and early laboratory diagnosis of NT-proBNP testing clinical significance. Methods 212 eases of cerebral infarction patients,63 eases of patients with cerebral hemorrhege,38 cases of healthy persons,were used to detect the plasma NT-proBNP level. Results Plasma NT-proBNP level was higher than the value of early warning of heart failure in patients with cerebral infarction in 32 cases,the positive rate was 15.1% ;cerebral hemorrhage in 8 eases,the positive rate was 12.70% ,compared with the centrol group was statistically significant. Conclusion Detection of NT-proBNP in stroke patients has important clini-cal significance on the prevention and treatment of complicated heart failure.
