A member asked:
My pro bnp is elevated greater than 1200?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart problems: Probnp is released by the ventricular muscle when there is extra strain upon the muscle, such as in cases of decrease heart function (left or right side). Why was this test drawn? One may ideally have an appointment with a cardiologist, including an echocardiogram and ecg.
