Popis: Background/Introduction N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a marker of ventricular wall stress and a potent predictor of death and heart failure (HF) across multiple populations (from healthy insurance applicants to various disease entities). Purpose To evaluate the prognostic importance of NT-proBNP in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by left ventricular systolic dysfunction, pulmonary congestion, or both and ≥1 of 8 predefined risk-augmenting factors (age ≥70 years, diabetes, previous MI, eGFR Methods Patients were randomized to sacubitril/valsartan 200mg or ramipril 5mg twice daily within 0.5 to 7 days of presenting with an AMI. Patients with prior HF were excluded. NT-proBNP and high-sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) were collected at randomization in a prespecified sub-study of 1129 patients. The primary endpoint of PARADISE-MI was a time-to-first composite of cardiovascular (CV) death or incident HF (hospitalization or outpatient symptomatic HF); secondary endpoints included all-cause death and the composite of fatal or non-fatal MI or stroke. Results Median NT-proBNP was 1757 pg/ml [interquartile range, 896–3462 pg/ml] at randomization (4.0±1.8 days after presentation with the index MI). Patients with higher NT-proBNP levels at baseline were older, more commonly women and more frequently had hypertension, atrial fibrillation, renal dysfunction, and pulmonary congestion at randomization (all p Conclusions When assessed within the first week of a high risk AMI NT-proBNP is not only associated with incident HF and death but also with atherosclerotic events and provides prognostic information that is independent of hsTnT in this post AMI population.
