Serum levels of fatty acid-binding protein in children with pneumonia complicated by acute congestive heart failure
AIM:To investigate pneumonia with heart failure (HF)of serum heart-type fatty acid binding egg white No.(H-FABP)level changes of pneumonia with heart failure in children with the clinical value.METHODS:Children with pneumonia complicated by heart failure 42 cases studied,40 cases of simple pneumonia and 35 cases of healthy children as control group.Carried out at different time heart-type fatty acid binding protein(H-FABP)and conventional test items creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)and troponin Ⅰ(CTnI)detection.RESULTS:Forty-two cases of HF in children with the CK-MB and CTnI at onset HF after 6-8 h start rising,24 h peaked;H-FABP at onset HF after 6-8 h peak.24 h after the rapidly declining.Three indicators of the peak value with simple pneumonia and two healthy children control group differences were statistically significant,simple pneumonia and healthy children two groups revealed no statistically significant difference.CONCLUSION:CK-MB and CTnI as poor indicators of early diagnosis,HFABP the early diagnosis of HF can be used as the best indicator.
