USE OF SERIAL NT-PRO BNP TESTING TO ESTIMATE RISK IN PATIENTS WITH ASYMPTOMATIC AORTIC VALVE STENOSIS: THE SEAS STUDY

Asymptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) carries risk of heart failure and sudden death during watchful waiting. However, it remains unclear whether NT-proBNP, and its change from last year, in asymptomatic aortic valve stenosis (AS) predicts outcome. We evaluated 1577 asymptomatic AS patients from the
