With the Feline proBNP snap.
The main reason I often hear is that "latent heart disease" has increased many options for blood tests, especially clinics or hospitals that do not have cardiac specialties to deliver echo. It is a highly recommended examination in purebred cats or older cats to screen heart disease in cats. I would like to underline the word "screen" because it is not a tool to confirm heart disease. In the end, if this test is abnormal, most doctors will recommend to check echocardiogram in detail again...
The principle of Pro BNP to understand is that "Pro NBP" is made up of the heart muscle, which is created more when the heart muscle is stretched or stressed. So if the test is "abnormal," it indicates that the heart is stretching or stress, which is causing the heart to be stretched or stress. In addition to the factors of the heart itself, there are other factors that can affect it. Therefore, the result is abnormal, may be heart disease, or may not be heart disease, it is recommended to echocardiogram to confirm heart disease again.
⭐ Satisfaction: 🌟🌟🌟🌟: Easy to do, like a regular blood test. Fast, convenient, cheaper to do echo. Broke -1 stars. Because it uses a lot more blood than a normal blood test and quite overlaps in case of additional heart echo.
🗣: It is recommended to do in the case of anesthesia, but if there is money to make the heart echo at all.
