NT-pro-BNP as a Predictor for Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Primary Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation

NT-pro-BNP as a Predictor for Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation after Primary Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation

NT-pro-BNP is produced in the cardiac atria and ventricles in response to increased wall stress. It may be a marker of both AF disease progression and co-morbidities that affect success after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). This single-center retrospective study analyzed the association between pre-...
