What is BNP Testing in Cardiac Diagnosis about?

BNP measures the amount of BNP hormone in the blood, which is made by the heart and indicates how well the heart is working. BNP levels help doctors determine if a patient has heart failure or another similar condition. A BNP result greater than 100 pg/mL is abnormal, with higher numbers indicating more severe heart failure. Nurses monitor patients for complications after BNP testing and educate patients about what the test indicates about heart function.
