Table 4.

Changes in reference values of NT-proBNP suggested by the ESC 2023 consensus document based on variations in eGFR and BMI.

eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) Changes in reference values of NT-proBNP
eGFR < 30  Increase of 35%
30 ≤ eGFR < 45  Increase of 25%
45 ≤ eGFR < 60  Increase of 15%
BMI (kg/m2) Changes in reference values of NT-proBNP
30 ≤ BMI < 35 Decrease of 25%
35 ≤ BMI < 40 Decrease of 30%
BMI ≥ 40 Decrease of 40%

Abbreviations: eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; NT-proBNP, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide; BMI, body mass index [12].
