A study on the value of B-type natriuretic peptide combines the TIMI risk score in predicting late mortality in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial Infarction / 重庆医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective:Assessment ofthe value of B-type natriuretic peptide levels combines TIMI risk scores in predictinglate mortality in patients with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction(STEMI).Methods:345 patients with STEMI were studied.Blood was drawn and the plasma concentration of BNP was determined within 24 hours after the onset of chest pain and the patients'TIMI risk score was measured.The all-cause mortality,including cardiac and non-cardiac deaths during Long-term follow-up,was recorded.Results:Mortality was 20.0%(n=69)during a follow-up of 314?208 days.The late mortality was related to higher TIMI risk scores(P;P
