Free triiodothyronine (fT3) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) predict in-hospital mortality after valve surgery

Background Increased B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and decreased free triiodothyronine (fT3) are associated with increased mortality after cardiac surgery. However, previous studies have addressed mortality primarily in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft, and not in those undergoing...

Description
Summary:Background Increased B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and decreased free triiodothyronine (fT3) are associated with increased mortality after cardiac surgery. However, previous studies have addressed mortality primarily in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft, and not in those undergoing valve surgery. We assessed abilities of BNP and fT3 to predict mortality after valve surgery. Methods This retrospective study included 1050 consecutive patients who underwent valve surgery with normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Predictors of in-hospital mortality were identified with logistic regression analyses. Cutoff values were determined with receiver operating curve analyses. Results There were 23 deaths (2.2%). By univariate analyses, fT3, log-transformed BNP (log BNP), cholinesterase, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and albumin were profoundly associated with in-hospital mortality ( p
