- W2040981241 abstract "Objectives: Sonographic thoracic B-lines and N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP) have been shown to help differentiate between congestive heart failure (CHF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The authors hypothesized that ultrasound (US) could be used to predict CHF and that it would provide additional predictive information when combined with NT-ProBNP. They also sought to determine optimal two- and eight-zone scanning protocols when different thresholds for a positive scan were used. Methods: This was a prospective, observational study of a convenience sample of adult patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with shortness of breath. Each patient had an eight-zone thoracic US performed by one of five sonographers, and serum NT-ProBNP levels were measured. Chart review by two physicians blinded to the US results served as the criterion standard. The operating characteristics of two- and eight-zone thoracic US alone, compared to, and combined with NT-ProBNP test results for predicting CHF were calculated using both dichotomous and interval likelihood ratios (LRs). Results: One-hundred patients were enrolled. Six were excluded because of incomplete data. Results of 94 patients were analyzed. A positive eight-zone US, defined as at least two positive zones on each side, had a positive likelihood ratio (LR+) of 3.88 (99% confidence interval [CI] = 1.55 to 9.73) and a negative likelihood ratio (LR−) of 0.5 (95% CI = 0.30 to 0.82), while the NT-ProBNP demonstrated a LR+ of 2.3 (95% CI = 1.41 to 3.76) and LR− of 0.24 (95% CI = 0.09 to 0.66). Using interval LRs for the eight-zone US test alone, the LR for a totally positive test (all eight zones positive) was infinite and for a totally negative test (no zones positive) was 0.22 (95% CI = 0.06 to 0.80). For two-zone US, interval LRs were 4.73 (95% CI = 2.10 to 10.63) when inferior lateral zones were positive bilaterally and 0.3 (95% CI = 0.13 to 0.71) when these were negative. These changed to 8.04 (95% CI = 1.76 to 37.33) and 0.11 (95% CI = 0.02 to 0.69), respectively, when congruent with NT-ProBNP. Conclusions: Bedside thoracic US for B-lines can be a useful test for diagnosing CHF. Predictive accuracy is greatly improved when studies are totally positive or totally negative. A two-zone protocol performs similarly to an eight-zone protocol. Thoracic US can be used alone or can provide additional predictive power to NT-ProBNP in the immediate evaluation of dyspneic patients presenting to the ED." @default.
