| Abstract | Background: Mitral valve stenosis (MS), which could be progressive, is one of the most important valvular disorders in developing countries. Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) is a well-accepted treatment option for dealing with symptomatic MS. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been used as a prognostic marker for clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure and acute coronary syndrome routinely. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between BNP levels and hemodynamic parameters in patients with MS who underwent PTMC. Methods: In this case-control study, 90 patients with severe isolated rheumatic mitral stenosis and undergoing PTMC were enrolled. In the study group, BNP levels were measured by performing radioimmunoassay on all participants 30 minutes before PTMC and 24 hours after PTMC. Data were analyzed using SPSS, and P-value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Fifty patients with MS who underwent PTMC were included in this study. The level of BNP before PTMC was 473.78 ± 66.95 pg/dL in patients with MS. The level of BNP in patients after PTMC reached 341.54 ± 48.3 pg/dL, which was indicative of a significant reduction in the level of BNP after PTMC (P-value = 0.006). Conclusions: A considerable decline was observed in the serum level of BNP following a successful PTMC, which was indicative of an improvement in clinical and hemodynamic status; hence, it was reasonably suggested that the serum level of BNP was effective in evaluating the response from patient with severe MS to PTMC. | en |
