Objectives: We examined the analytical correlation N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP).
Design And Methods: Electrochemiluminescence and fluorescence immunoassays were used to measure NT-proBNP and BNP levels, respectively.
Results: The analytical correlation was satisfactory using the equation: NT-proBNP = 8.
