Nineteen studies showed that elevated BNP levels in patients with heart failure are associated with an increased risk of death or cardiovascular events. 33 Pooled results from five studies showed that a BNP increase of 100 pg per mL caused a 35 percent increase in risk of death.
Because BNP levels tend to increase with age, a person's doctor may need to determine what a normal BNP value for them should be. Please see our Heart Health category for additional tests to screen for heart disease. Turnaround time for the BNP test is typically 2-3 business days. Note: Result turn around times are an estimate and are not guaranteed. Our reference lab may need additional time due to weather, holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, or equipment maintenance.
