Does Admission NT-ProBNP Increase the Prognostic Accuracy of GRACE Risk Score in the Prediction of Short-Term Mortality After Acute Coronary Syndromes?

BACKGROUND: NT-proBNP has prognostic implications in heart failure. In acute coronary syndromes (ACS) setting, the prognostic significance of NT-proBNP is being sought. We studied short-term prognostic impact of admission NT-proBNP in patients admitted for ACS and in association with GRACE risk scor...
