Abstract

Objective To examine the correlation of the high sensitive-CRP(hs-CRP) levels and BNP with Cardiac function during the onset of acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods The serum levels of hs-CRP,BNP were detected in 81 with non-AMI and 86 patients with AMI.Left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and left ventilator posterior wall thickness growing rate at systole(△T%) were measured by echocardiography.Results Compared with control group,AMI patients had high serum levels of hs-CRP.The higher of Killip class,the higher the levels of hs-CRP and BNP.The levels of hs-CRP and BNP were positive correlation with Killip class(r=0.38,r=0.51,P0.01).Conclusion The levels of serum hs-CRP and BNP significantly increased in the AMI patients.The levels of hs-CRP and BNP are positive correlation with Killip class.
