ABNORMAL NT-proBNP TEST RESULT FOR PERSON OVER 75 YEARS. What is a value of a abnormal NT-proBNP level for older people?
NT-proBNP levels in the blood are used for diagnosis of acute congestive heart failure (CHF). Older persons have naturally higher values, since there is larger chance for heart failure. It is useful to establish prognosis in heart failure, as values are typically higher in patients with worse outcome.
This higher values indicate a raised possibility of heart failure. This state is usually present among the people of higher age. NT-proBNP testing may be performed if a person has symptoms such as swelling in the legs, difficulty with breathing, shortness of breath or fatigue.
