Know More about NT PRO BNP ( N-TERMINAL PRO B TYPE NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE)*
The NT-proBNP test looks at the level of a protein that the heart releases when it is under stress. This test is used to detect and monitor heart failure, and other conditions affecting the heart. The NT-proBNP test is important as it shows how well the heart is functioning, and allows doctors to make treatment decisions to help keep your heart as healthy as possible.
Process
- You will have a small blood sample taken from a vein in your arm.
- Occasionally, a small finger prick sample can be tested relatively quickly.
- The blood sample is sent to a lab to test for the NT-proBNP content.
When to be Tested
You should consider this test if you are experiencing any symptoms such as swelling, shortness of breath, or fatigue . You should also consider being tested if you have any of the risk factors for heart failure , including diabetes, high blood pressure, and prior history of heart disease.
Sample Type
Usually this test requires a blood sample from a vein.
Test Preparation
No special preparation or fasting is required. Be sure to inform your doctor about any medications you take, as they might affect the results.
Understanding Your Results
A high NT-proBNP level means your heart is overworked or has heart failure. If you have a normal NT-proBNP level, this most likely means your heart's left ventricle is functioning normally.
