Level of perioperative B-type natriuretic peptide associates with heart function after on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery on a beating heart

摘要

Objective: To explore the relationship of the perioperative B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level with heart function among patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery on a beating heart.Methods: Total 90 patients expected to undergo coronary artery bypass graft surgery were selected and their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were examined before operation. Patients with LVEF greater than or equal to 50% were selected as the A group (n=46), and those less than 50% formed the B group (n=44). BNP levels of the patients were examined and its relationship with cardiac function was analyzed.Results: BNP levels of group A was lower than that in group B pre-and post-operatively (until 7 days after the surgery), the difference is statistically significant (p<0.05). Pearson analysis showed that the BNP level was negatively correlated with the LVEF (r = 0.767, p< 0.05). The area under the Roc curve is 0.865.Conclusion: BNP level was negatively correlated with the LVEF. Perioperative BNP level can be used as the prediction for heart function of patients with on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery on a beating heart.doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.12669/pjms.312.6189How to cite this:Wang B, Cheng Z, Ge Z, Peng B, Zhao Z, Quan X.
