The article presents the results of a study of the brain natriuretic peptide levels in the serum of patients with cirrhotic cardiomyopathy. Increase in the rate of brain natriuretic peptide in patients with cirrhosis and diastolic dysfunction by the type of delayed relaxation of the left ventricle has been found. The significant correlation was found in the level of the brain natriuretic peptide both with the degree of transmitral diastolic flow by the type of delayed relaxation of the left ventricle, and with the severity of liver cirrhosis on the criteria of Child-Pugh.
