Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels as a Prognostic Biomarker After Pulmonary Endarterectomy in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
This study demonstrates that elevated brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) post-pulmonary endarterectomy strongly predicts mortality in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), providing valuable prognostic information beyond persistent pulmonary hypertension status.
