Association between N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide and clinical outcomes in bedridden patients with stroke: a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Patients with stroke often remain bedridden despite rehabilitation. Serum N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) levels increase after stroke. Our study aimed to investigate the difference in NT-pro-BNP levels between bedridden and non-bedridden patients with stroke and to explore the factors influencing NT-pro-BNP levels in bedridden patients.

Design

A single-centre, cross-sectional study.

Setting

This study was conducted in a hospital, Shenzhen, China.

Participants

Between January 2019 and December 2022, 465 participants were included in this study.

Outcome measures

The collected data included basic information, laboratory data and echocardiographic parameters. Binary logistic regression analysis and receiver operating charac
