Perioperative Troponin I and NT Pro-BNP in Lung Resection

Incidence and Clinical Relevance of Perioperative Elevation of Troponin I and N- Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide in Patients Undergoing Lung Resection

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Mar 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

After lung resection, troponin elevation may be regulated by mechanisms other than myocardial ischemia. Perioperative natriuretic peptides measurement may help identify changes in ventricular function during thoracic surgery. Integrating both cardiac biomarkers may improve the predictive value for cardiovascular complications after lung resection.
