NT-pro-BNP as marker for cardiac strain that may be caused by high-output arteriovenous shunting in a haemodialysis patient. A case report

BACKGROUND: An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the first choice when considering access for haemodialysis (HD). When a forearm AVF fails an upper arm AVF is a frequent subsequent dialysis access option. The latter may cause cardiac strain. NT-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-NT-proBNP) is a marker...
