Prognostic power of NT-proBNP in left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy

This study provides evidence that an increase in NT-proBNP is a strong predictor of outcome in patients with LVNC. The prognostic power of NT-proBNP is at least as good as that of LVEF, indicating that routine NT-proBNP measurement may improve risk assessment in LVNC.
