INTRODUCTION
Chronic heart failure is a common health problem, increasing and associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and health care costs 1-3 . Chronic heart failure is not only a burden in Europe and the United States but is also increasing and has a great impact in Asia in general and Southeast Asian countries in particular 2,4,5,6 . Despite many advances in treatment, the mortality and hospitalization rates of patients with chronic heart failure with PSTM ≤ 40% remain high 4,7,8,9,10 , the mortality rate due to chronic heart failure and hospitalization in Southeast Asia is generally higher than in the world 11,12 . There are not many published epidemiological statistics on heart failure in Vietnam, the number of people with chronic heart failure is estimated at 1.5 to 3.5 million and the rate of hospitalization due to chronic heart failure is still high 12 . This increases the economic and social burden 12,13 . Predicting patients at high risk of hospitalization and death is of great importance in patient care and treatment to identify patients who need close monitoring and intensive care.
Natriuretic peptides (BNP and NT-proBNP) are biomarkers that have been developed and widely applied. NT-proBNP is recommended as Class I in the diagnosis, prognosis and risk stratification of patients with chronic heart failure with PSTM ≤ 40% in recent guidelines of major associations such as the European Society of Cardiology, the American Heart Association or the Vietnam Cardiology Association 14-16 . NT-proBNP reflects the mechanical stress on the heart wall and the state of congestion, so it plays an important role in the diagnosis of heart failure 17. In clinical practice, natriuretic peptides are affected by many individual factors (such as age, sex, body mass index and glomerular filtration rate) 18,19 . NT-proBNP also increases in many diseases that are common co-morbidities in chronic heart failure and changes with different treatments 17 . Therefore, the use of NT-proBNP for prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure is still limited because NT-proBNP does not reflect myocardial remodeling, changes according to many factors or changes according to treatment, so it needs to be quantified many times 20,21,22, 23,24 . Developing and evaluating new factors or tools in combination with NT-proBNP to predict and stratify the risk of patients with chronic heart failure more accurately and effectively is an urgent need in the current management of chronic heart failure.
