Preprocedural N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide as a useful marker for predicting periprocedural myocardial injury following percutaneous coronary intervention in diabetic patients without cardiac dysfunction
2015
AbstractBackground. Elevated preprocedural N-term pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) and postprocedural cardiac troponin I (cTnI) are related to a poor cardiac outcome in the non-diabetic population. We hypothesized that preprocedural NT-pro-BNP might be a useful marker in predicting periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods. We prospectively enrolled 1194 consecutive diabetic patients with normal cardiac function and preprocedural cTnI who were successfully undergoing elective PCI. Preprocedural NT-pro-BNP levels were assessed at admission, and PMI was evaluated by analysis of cTnI within 24 hours. The relationship between preprocedural NT-pro-BNP levels and the peak values of cTnI after PCI was examined. Results. Patients with high baseline NT-pro-BNP levels had higher postprocedural cTnI levels (β = 0.123, p < 0.001). In the multivariable model, NT-pro-BNP was associated with higher risk of postprocedura...
