High-sensitive cardiac troponin T
Cardiac troponin is the preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The recent development of a high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assay permits detection of very low levels of cTnT. Using the hs-cTnT assay improves the overall diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspected AMI, while a negative result also has a high negative predictive value. The gain ...
متن کاملHigh-sensitivity cardiac troponin T predicts non-cardiac mortality in heart failure.
BACKGROUND Cardiac troponins are independent predictors of cardiac mortality in patients with heart failure (HF). Recently, elevation of troponins was described in non-cardiac diseases such as stroke and infection, among others, but it remains unclear whether high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) predicts non-cardiac mortality in HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Four-hundred and forty-four c...
متن کاملKinetics of high sensitive troponin T (HSTNT) after cardiac surgery
Introduction Perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) in the setting of cardiac surgery represent a considerable risk to patients with significant mortality and morbidity. The role of highly sensitive cardiac troponin T (hsTnT) has not been evaluated in the setting of cardiac surgery, instead Cardiac Troponin T (TnT) and Creatine Kinase MB (CK-MB) are commonly used for the diagnosis of PMI [1].
متن کاملMetaanalysis in clinical chemistry: validation of cardiac troponin T as a marker for ischemic heart diseases.
Metaanalysis is a method that incorporates the pooling of previously published results to produce more statistically significant results. We used metaanalysis to examine the role of a new cardiac marker, cardiac troponin T (cTnT), in patients with ischemic heart disease. Metaanalysis of six articles and one abstract on cTnT showed that this marker was just as sensitive as creatine kinase MB iso...
متن کاملHigh-sensitive cardiac troponin: friend or foe?
Cardiac troponin I and T (cTn) are structural proteins unique to the heart. Detection of cTn in peripheral blood indicates cardiomyocyte necrosis. As acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most important cause of cardiomyocyte necrosis, cTns have become an integral part in the diagnosis of AMI. In this indication, cTns are superior to all other biomarkers indicating cardiomyocyte necrosis suc...
