Predictive Value of N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide for Short-Term Outcome of Cardioversion in Patients with First-Diagnosed or Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Presenting to the Emergency Department

Predictive Value of N-Terminal Pro B-Type Natriuretic Peptide for Short-Term Outcome of Cardioversion in Patients with First-Diagnosed or Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Presenting to the Emergency Department

<b>Background</b>: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia in the emergency department (ED). We investigated the role of N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in predicting both the outcome of AF cardioversion and the risk of AF recurrence or persistence on the 8t...
