for felinesNT-proBNPserum

In vitro diagnostic test kit for the quantitative measurement of NT-proBNP concentration in feline serum The ability to differentiate cardiac from non-cardiac causes of respiratory signs is a vital initial step in achieving an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. What NT-proBNP levels tell us NT-proBNP concentration reflects the degree of cardiac activation secondary to stimulus, such as stretching2, allowing this marker to be used to assess the magnitude of cardiac muscle stretching. To screen for asymptomatic heart disease Priorto anesthesia In apparently healthy cats with heart murmurs At risk breeds - Maine Coon, Ragdoll, Birman, Persian To détermine cardiac or respiratory disease In cats with respiratory signs such as dyspnea, tachypnea To differentiate cardiac and respiratory causes of dyspnea To determine the severity of heart disease For monitoring stabilization of CHF during hospitalization For predicting survival in cats with CHF4 NT-proBNP should be interpreted in the context of other appropriate information, such as echocardiography, thoracic radiography, history and évaluation of dinical signs, to improve the accuracy of diagnosis.
