<i>Technical Note:</i> Discordance Between Point of Care (POCT) BNP and Laboratory-Based NT-proBNP Values at Decision Cut-off in Some Patients - POCT BNP Values Below Cut-off Should be Interpreted with Caution.

Because of this significant discordance, if both tests are ordered for initial diagnosis, POCT BNP result should be interpreted with caution if below the cut-off. Moreover, if only POCT BNP is ordered it may be normal in some patients with heart failure.

Abstract

Because of this significant discordance, if both tests are ordered for initial diagnosis, POCT BNP result should be interpreted with caution if below the cut-off. Moreover, if only POCT BNP is ordered it may be normal in some patients with heart failure.
