Prognostic Value of Serial N‐Terminal Pro‐B‐Type Natriuretic Peptide Measurements in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

Prognostic Value of Serial N‐Terminal Pro‐B‐Type Natriuretic Peptide Measurements in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

BackgroundA single NT‐proBNP (N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide) measurement is a strong prognostic factor in adult congenital heart disease. This study investigates NT‐proBNP profiles within patients with adult congenital heart disease and relates these to cardiovascular events. Methods and...
