Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic and the prognostic value of a laboratory panel consisting of mid-regional pro-atrial natriuretic peptide (MR-proANP), procalcitonin (PCT), and mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) for patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with acute dyspnea.
