Sonographic chest B-lines anticipate elevated B-type natriuretic peptide level, irrespective of ejection fraction
BACKGROUND: Echocardiography and the N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level are important tests for assessing left ventricular function in patients presenting to the emergency department with acute dyspnea. Chest ultrasound is becoming an important tool in diagnosing acute p...
