Clinical value of NT-proBNP,D-Dimer and cTnI in patients with acute pulmonary embolism

Objective To evaluate clinical value of NT-proBNP,D-Dimer,cTnI in patients with pulmonary embolism.Methods A total of 145 cases who were diagnosed acute pulmonary embolism by CT pulmonary angiography accepted examinations of echocardiography,NT-proBNP,cTnI and D-Dimer were retrospectively investigated.Diseases that might affect NT-proBNP,cTnI,D-Dimer were excluded.Patients were divided into 4 groups by risk stratification,high-risk group,medium high-risk group,medium low-risk group and low-risk group.Results Plasma NT-proBNP levels were significantly higher in high-risk group,medium high-risk group,medium low-risk group than low-risk group(P<0.05).NT-proBNP level positively correlated with risk stratification(r=0.618,P<0.05),and predicted right ventricular dysfunction in APE(cutoff 1305 ng/L)independently with the sensitivity and specificity 69.2%and 69.9%respectively(AUC=0.751,95%CI:0.672-0.819,P<0.05).There was no significant difference in D-Dimer concentrations between high-risk group,medium high-risk group,medium low-risk group and low-risk group(P>0.05).D-Dimer had no correlation with risk stratification(r=0.078,P>0.05)and poor performance in predicting RVD(AUC=0.569,95%CI:0.485-0.651,P>0.05).Concentrations of cTnI were higher in high-risk group,medium high-risk group,medium low-risk group than low-risk group(P<0.05)and positively correlated with risk stratification(r=0.303,P<0.05).The cutoff of cTnI in predicting RVD was 0.20μg/L,with the sensitivity and specificity 82.7%and 40.9%respectively(AUC=0.655,95%CI:0.571-0.732,P<0.05).Combination of NT-proBNP and cTnI was superior to single detection in predicting RVD(AUC=0.778,95%CI:0.701-0.842,P<0.05).Conclusion Levels of plasma NT-proBNP and cTnI elevate with the increase of risk stratification and are useful in the diagnosis of RVD,which may aid in risk stratification and prognosis in PE.D-Dimer levels are not associated with risk stratification and do not predict RVD well.
