dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVES: Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) is commonly associated with depressive symptoms and elevated N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP). We investigated the predictive value of depressive symptoms and NTproBNP levels for long-term outcomes in patients with ES.

METHODS: Blood was drawn to measure NT-proBNP, and depressive symptoms were measured using the Korean version of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) in an outpatient clinic sample of 64 patients with ES (67% female; median age = 41.5 years [range, 21.0-74.8 years]). Cardiac events (hospitalization, emergency department visits, and cardiac death) were monitored during 3 years of follow-up.

RESULTS: During the follow-up period, 15 (23.4%) patients experienced a cardiac event. The combination of depressive symptoms and NT-proBNP levels better predicted future cardiac events than either variable alone. Patients with NT-proBNP > 510 pg/ml and a total BDI score > 10 had a 9.6 times higher risk for cardiac events than did patients with NT-proBNP ≤ 510 pg/ml or total BDI score ≤ 10 (p < .001).

CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms and NT-proBNP levels are both associated with adverse clinical outcomes in ES.
