ABSTRACT
Brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) emerges as another cardiac hormone after atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). It plays a prominent role in natriuresis, diuresis, vasorelaxation and decreasing blood pressure. The plasma levels of BNP are closely related to the left ventricular function. In this review, the author highlights the latest progress of BNP in the diagnosis, risk stratification, prognosis and therapeutic monitoring of patients with congestive heart failure and other cardiac dysfunction.
