Prediction of Heart Function and Volume Status in End-Stage Kidney Disease Patients through N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide

Prediction of Heart Function and Volume Status in End-Stage Kidney Disease Patients through N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide

<i>Background and Objectives</i>: N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a biomarker used to predict heart failure and evaluate volume status in hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, it is difficult to determine the cutoff value for NT-proBNP in HD patients. In this study...
