The diagnostic and prognostic value of the combined measurements of cTnI, CRP and BNP in patients with ischemic heart failure
Abstract:Objective To explore the diagnostic and prognostic values of combined measurements of cardiac troponin I(cTnI), C reactive protein(CRP)and B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP)in patients with ischemia heart fail-ure.Methods The serum cTnI, CRP and blood plasma BNP in 98 cases ischemic heart failure patients with different cardiac function classification and 95 coronary heart disease without heart failure patients , and a follow-up observation of the recurrence of recent cardiac events was performed .Results The levels of serum cTnI , CRP and blood plasma BNP between heart failure patients with different cardiac function grading and the control group were compared , and the differences were statistically significant .The worse the heart function was , the higher the concentration was ( P<0.05).Serum cTnI, CRP and plasma BNP concentrations at hospital discharge in the cardiac events group were markedly higher than those in the non-cardiac events group ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion Serum cTnI , CRP and plasma BNP concentrations in patients with congestive heart failure obviously increase , and the combined measurements of three indexes have important significance in clinical diagnosis and prognostic evaluation for heart failure .
