All natriuretic peptides significantly increased with decreasing ejection fraction and with increasing degree of diastolic dysfunction. For natriuretic peptides, receiver operating characteristics analysis yielded good results for the detection of systolic dysfunction or severe diastolic dysfunction. Combining clinical parameters with natriuretic peptide data improved the diagnostic accuracy and largely reduced the number of needed screening echoes to identify patients with LV systolic or diastolic dysfunction.CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of preclinical diastolic dysfunction is high in primary care patients at risk, but the relative prevalence of severe diastolic dysfunction and systolic dysfunction is only 7%. High-risk individuals may be screened most efficiently by using a score system incorporating clinical data and NT-proBNP.",
