NT-Pro BNP

HEART FAILURE

RAMP NT-PROBNP TEST

Response provides rapid, accurate diagnosis and assessment of congestive heart failure in about 15 minutes. RAMP NT-proBNP aids in the risk stratification of patients suffering from heart failure, and provides diagnostic accuracy comparable to the Roche Elecsys proBNP. Find out why people are switching from BNP to NT-proBNP as the gold standard biomarker test for heart failure.

THE chaleng

MANAGING PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE

  • 1 out of 4 patients will be readmitted within 30 days of discharge, the highest rate of readmission of any discharge diagnosis
  • 1 in 5 patients diagnosed with heart failure die within the first year and about half of people who develop heart failure die within 5 years of diagnosis
  • Heart failure often presents with non-specific symptoms and is frequently confused with pneumonia or COPD
  • Heart attacks and Coronary Heart Disease are two of the most expensive conditions to treat.

 

THE SOLUTION

RAMP NT-PROBNP TEST

  • Provides rapid, accurate diagnoses and assessment of congestive heart failure.
  • NT-proBNP is roughly 5 times more stable of a biomarker then BNP
  • Better accuracy in mild heart failure patients because the levels of NT-proBNP are 2-10x higher
  • Standardized to Roche Elecsys Lab Analyzer
