Key Question 3: In HF populations, is BNP or NT-pro BNP measured at admission, discharge or change between admission and discharge an independent predictor of morbidity and mortality outcomes? Key Question 4: In HF populations, does BNP measured at admission, discharge or change between admission and discharge add predictive information to other prognostic methods? Key Question 5: Is BNP or NT-pro BNP measured in the community setting an independent predictor of morbidity and mortality outcomes in general populations? Key Question 6: In patients with HF, does BNP assisted therapy or intensified therapy compared to usual care, improve outcomes?
