Figure 4 Patients Asymptomatic at Discharge Versus iBNP Levels
The influence of time to initial treatment on the percentage of patients who are asymptomatic at hospital discharge is shown with time to initial diuretic treatment divided into quartiles. Each quartile of time to treatment is divided by quartiles of iBNP levels. iBNP = immunoreactive B-type natriuretic peptide; IV = intravenous.
