No action needed. Continue regular veterinary checkups including cardiac auscultation.
Canine NT-proBNP: 450 pmol/LHigh NT-proBNP strongly indicates heart disease, typically myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) in small breeds or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in large breeds.
Your dog needs a full cardiology workup including chest X-rays, echocardiogram, and possibly ECG. Medications may be needed to manage heart failure.
Canine NT-proBNP: 2500 pmol/L (High)This level indicates noticeable heart stretch consistent with congestive heart failure (CHF). Your dog likely has fluid buildup in the lungs or abdomen.
Immediate veterinary emergency. Your dog needs oxygen, diuretics, and cardiac medications. Hospitalization is required.
