Abstract Objective To investigate the relation of the plasma of brain natriuretic peptide（BNP）and high sensitivity C reactive protein（hs-CRP）and prognosis in old patients with non-ST segment elevated myocardial infarction（NSTEMI）. Methods Data of 102 old patients who aged greater than 60 years and occurred NSTEMI were collected. The plasma BNP and hs-CRP were measured immediately, 14 days, 30 days after the occurrence of NSTEMI. Echocardiogram was checked at 7 days and 6 months. Results The immediately plasma BNP and hs-CRP levels［（596.6±136.0）ng/L,（3.36±1.98）mg/L］were significantly higher in left ventricular remodeling group（△LVEDVI ≥ 20%）than the levels［（222.3±118.0）ng/L,（1.82±1.23）mg/L］of BNP and hs-CRP which is not in left ventricular remodeling group（△LVEDVI＜20%）; P＜0.05）. The immediately plasma BNP and hs-CRP levels［（563.9±181）ng/L,（3.93±3.01）mg/L］were also significantly higher in the group with heart events than the levels［（327.2±179 ng/L,（1.66±1.45）mg/L］of BNP and hs-CRP in the group without heart events（P＜0.05）. 30 days hs- CRP levels had no statistical significance in left ventricular remodeling group.Conclusion he early plasma of BNP and hs-CRP is clinically important for predicting the prognosis of old NSTEMI patients
