BNP, Nt-Pro-BNP or ANP

2022-03-26 19:05:13
Hello dr.; I am having symptoms of right sided heart failure like peripheral edema, liver pain, severe shortness of breath upon exertion and increase in edema upon exertion. My 2D Echo is Normal. LVEF is 60%. (But Right atrial or ventricular function is not mentioned.) Nt-Pro-BNP is also normal viz; 27 pg/ml. But still symptoms are there and i am unable to do my daily routine life activities. Should i test for ANP(Atrial Natriuretic Peptide)? Can ANP test rule out heart failure? Or can a person has heart failure despite all normal reports?
