Abstract：Objective To discuss the predictive effect of serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level on cardiac resuscitation post cardiac valve replacement.Methods Eighty-three patients underwent cardiac valve replacement were divided into to groups according to whether the heart resuscitate automatically or not.The materials of the two groups were analyzed.Then,correlation and regression analysis were performed between the level of BNP and electric shock resuscitation times in all the 83 patients.Results The level of BNP pre-operation was lower in automatic resuscitation group than that in electric shock resuscitation group [(226 ± 130) ng/L vs (628 ± 411) ng/L,P ＜0.01].A positive correlation between BNP level and cardiac shock resuscitation times was found(Spearman r =0.8055,P =0.000).Conclusions Preoperative serum BNP level can predict the difficulty of cardiac resuscitation after cardiac valve replacement surgery.Correction of preoperative cardiac dysfunction in patients with high BNP level should be strengthened.
