- Available data indicate that the use of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal-proBNP (NT-proBNP) improve the diagnostics of suspected heart failure as compared to the currently used clinical diagnosis. The increased use of these diagnostic aids is therefore desirable. Since the predictive values are less than 100 procent and the levels are affected by many other factors but heart failure, the results of such measurement should not be used in isolation, but together with a proper clinical judgement. BNP and NT-proBNP are strongly related to the prognosis of most heart diseases, but we are still missing sufficient scientific proof to recommend the measurement of these hormones routinely for monitoring and therapy control.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- During four decades, the ECG limb lead display has differed between Sweden and the rest of the world. In the classical, or international, display, the limb leads are presented in two groups in non-contiguous order: I, II, III, and aVR, aVL, aVF. When ECG recording and presentation was standardized in Sweden, a joint decision between several medical specialty associations was made to use the so-called Cabrera presentation, in which limb leads are presented in contiguous order: aVL, I, -aVR, II, aVF and III. This presentation is logical and easily understood.
