What is the significance of NT-proBNP?

The VISION perioperative risk NT-proBNP calculator is a tool used to predict the risk of myocardial infarction, vascular death, and all-cause death in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. The calculator uses the NT-proBNP biomarker to estimate the risk of cardiovascular events after surgery.

The benefits of this App are as follows 

1. It uses preoperative NT-proBNP in addition to other predictors from the Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) to provide updated estimates of cardiovascular risk. 

 2. It offers a non-invasive and low-cost method of refining preoperative risk stratification, providing incremental prognostic information when added to traditional multivariate prediction. 

 3. It can help clinicians identify patients at higher risk of cardiovascular events, allowing for better perioperative management and decision-making.
