Resumo
Objetivo: Determinar o valor da concentração do BNP que se associa à presença de hipertrofia do ventrículo esquerdo (VE) em mulheres com pré-eclâmpsia (PE). Métodos: Realizou-se estudo observacional, descritivo e transversal em gestantes com diagnóstico de pré-eclâmpsia, que receberam assistência obstétrica no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu - Unesp. Foram excluídas do estudo gestantes portadoras de patologia clínica ou gestacional associada a alterações cardiovasculares (diabetes, hipertensão arterial crônica, cardiopatias, colagenoses, nefropatias). Considerando a prevalência de hipertrofia concêntrica do VE nessa população de 27% e assumindo a margem de erro de 10% e confiabilidade de 95%, o tamanho amostral calculado foi de 76 gestantes. No momento do diagnóstico de PE as gestantes selecionadas foram submetidas à coleta de sangue venoso para determinação da concentração sérica de BNP e ao exame de ecocardiograma para identificação de hipertrofia concêntrica do VE. As correlações entre o índice de massa do VE (iMVE) e entre a espessura relativa da parede (ER) e o BNP foram realizadas pelo teste de Spearman. O ponto de corte da concentração do BNP, que identifica hipertrofia concêntrica do VE, foi estabelecido pela curva ROC, utilizando-se o programa estatístico SPSS for Windows. Resultados: A hipertrofia concêntrica do ventrículo esquerdo foi diagnosticada em 48,7% das gestantes. O ponto de corte do valor da concentração do BNP, que identifica a hipertrofia concêntrica do VE, foi 203pg/mL (sensibilidade de 88%, especificidade de 80%, valor preditivo positivo de 69%, valor preditivo negativo de 93% e acurácia de 83%). A área sob a curva foi 0,87 (IC 95%= 0,79 – 0,95). A correlação entre o iMVE e a ER com a concentração do BNP foi significativa (iMVE: r=0,49; p<0,0001; ER: r=0,50; p<0,0001). Conclusões: O presente estudo encontrou correlação positiva entre os valores de BNP e hipertrofia do VE, além de determinar o ponto de corte (203 pg/ml) para o diagnóstico dessa condição. Utilizar o BNP como rastreamento de hipertrofia do VE pode ajudar na racionalização da indicação do ecocardiograma para confirmação diagnóstica.
Objective: To determine BNP concentration value associated with the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LV) in women with pre-eclampsia (PE). Methods: An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study was performed in pregnant women diagnosed with preeclampsia, who have received obstetric care at Botucatu Medical School Clinical Hospital - Unesp. Pregnant women with clinical or gestational pathology associated with cardiovascular alterations such as diabetes, chronic hypertension, heart diseases, collagenosis, nephropathies were excluded from the study. Considering the prevalence of LV concentric hypertrophy in this population of 27% and assuming the margin of error of 10%, as well as reliability of 95%, the calculated sample size was of 76 pregnant women. At the moment of PE diagnosis the selected pregnant women were submitted to both venous blood collection (in order to determine BNP serum concentration) and to echocardiogram examination (to identify LV concentric hypertrophy). Correlations between LV mass index (iMVL), relative wall thickness (WT) and BNP were performed with Spearman test. The cut off of BNP concentration, which identifies LV concentric hypertrophy, was established with ROC curve, using the statistical program SPSS for Windows. Results: Left ventricular concentric hypertrophy was diagnosed in 48.7% of the pregnant women. The cut off value of BNP concentration, which identifies LV concentric hypertrophy, was 203pg / mL (sensitivity 88%, specificity 80%, positive predictive value 69%, negative predictive value 93%, and accuracy 83%). The area under the curve was 0.87 (95% CI = 0.79-0.95). The correlation between iMVL and WT with BNP concentration was significant (iMVE: r=0,49; p<0,0001; ER: r=0,50; p<0,0001). Conclusions: The present study found a positive correlation between BNP values and LV hypertrophy. Moreover, it determined the cut off (203 pg / ml) for the diagnosis of this condition. Therefore, using BNP as a screening method for LV hypertrophy may help to rationalize echocardiographic indication for diagnosis confirmation.
