Does elevated serum NT-proBNP concentration predict prognosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?
Elevated NT-proBNP serves as a strong prognostic marker for heart failure-related death and transplantation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
In patients with HCM, elevated NT-proBNP concentration is a strong predictor of overall prognosis, particularly HF-related death and transplantation.
