Early N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NTproBNP) Plasma Values and Associations with Patent Ductus Arteriosus Closure and Treatment—An Echocardiography Study of Extremely Preterm Infants

Early N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (NTproBNP) Plasma Values and Associations with Patent Ductus Arteriosus Closure and Treatment—An Echocardiography Study of Extremely Preterm Infants

The aim was to investigate the association of gestational age (GA), echocardiographic markers and levels of plasma N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) with the closure rate of a haemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA). Ninety-eight Swedish extremely preterm inf...
