Previous studies reported that patients who had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have found that measuring B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) during the subacute phase of left ventricular (LV) remodeling can predict the possible course of LV remodeling. | Predictors of left ventricle remodeling: Combined plasma B-type natriuretic peptide decreasing ratio and peak creatine kinase-MB
