<br/><br/> objective : N-terminal pro-BNP (NTproBNP) could be useful to predict outcome in severe sepsis and septic shock . We have conducted a study to evaluate NTproBNP CRP and serum albumin levels in the setting of severe sepsis or septic shock . Conelusions : NT-proBNP values are frequently increased in severe sepsis and septic shock . Values are sigificantly higher in nonsurvivors than survivors
