BNP (B-type natriuretic peptides) Tests
A B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) test is a blood test. It measures the levels of a certain type of hormone in your blood called a B-type natriuretic peptide.
Higher-than-normal levels of BNP in your blood can be a sign that your heart isn’t working as it should. It can mean that your heart isn’t pumping enough blood through your body.
Since BNP is cleared by your kidneys, it may also mean that your kidneys are not functioning properly.
