Immunoassay for the in vitro quantitative determination of N-terminal pro-Brain natriuretic peptide in human serum and plasma. Elecsys proBNP II assay is used as an aid in the diagnosis of individuals suspected of having congestive heart failure. The test is further indicated for the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndrome and congestive heart failure. The test may also serve as an aid in the assessment of increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality in patients at risk for heart failure who have stable coronary artery disease.

The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers.

The Elecsys PreciControl Cardiac II is used for quality control of specified immunoassays on the Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers.

The Elecsys proBNP II CalSet is used for calibrating the quantitative Elecsys proBNP II assay on the Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
