Successful Management of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension by Monitoring N-Terminal Pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Serum Levels in a Preterm Infant with Chronic Lung Disease: A Case Report
We measured the serial changes in N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels in a 6-month-old male infant with chronic lung disease (CLD) complicated by pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The patient was born at the 24th week of gestation weighing 695 g. At 1 month after birth, a...
