    摘要: The present invention relates to an in vitro method for medical diagnosis, prognosis and therapy follow-up for patients having a cardiac disease or being suspected of developing or having a cardiac disease comprising the steps of: providing a sample of a patient having a cardiac disease or being suspected of developing or having a cardiac disease, determining amino-terminal proANP or partial peptides thereof having from 12 to 98 amino acids in said sample using at least one antibody that binds specifically to a partial sequence of amino- terminal proANP, attributing the determined amino-terminal proANP level or the level of partial peptides thereof to a clinical picture wherein the attribution is carried out independent of the BMI of the patient. The present invention further concerns a rapid test assay and a kit for conducting the method of the present invention and the use of antibodies suitable for the method and assays according to the present invention.
