Early changes in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide levels after transcatheter aortic valve replacement and its impact on long-term mortality

The prognostic information of early post-procedural NT-proBNP concentrations is superior to pre-procedural values regarding all-cause mortality within 1 year. Post-procedural NT-proBNP must be interpreted in relation to the TAVR approach. NT-proBNP predicts mortality in TF-TAVR patients with AR and reduced left ventricular function.
