cohb level and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin t in 2012 in bursa, turkey: a retrospective single-center study
نویسندگان
چکیده
conclusions in patients without clear signs of myocardial infarction, even mild co poisoning was associated with quantifiable circulating levels of hs-ctnt when tnt was measured using a highly sensitive assay in the current study patients. plasma levels of the hs-tnt and ck-mb assays were not correlated with the cohb levels in the current study patients. results the mean age of the patients was 38 ± 16 years. cohb levels ranged from 8 to 35. hs-ctnt levels on inclusion in this study were slightly different between the groups (p = 0.05). cohb levels with hs-ctnt values were weakly correlated (r = 0.173, p = 0.041); on the other hand, ck-mb levels were not correlated with cohb (r = 0.013, p = 0.883). patients and methods this retrospective study was conducted on 141 (54 males and 87 females) patients, with acute co intoxication, admitted to the sevket yilmaz research and education hospital emergency unit during a one-year period (january 2012 - january 2013). the patients were divided into three groups based on cohb levels: group i, mild cohb level < 15%; group ii, cohb between 15% and 25%; group iii, severe acute co intoxication cohb levels > 25%. cohb, hs-ctnt (stat), creatine kinase (ck) and creatine kinase-myocardial band (ck-mb) levels were measured on admission. background intoxication due to carbon monoxide (co) is one of the most common types of poisoning. cardiac effects of carboxyhemoglobin (cohb) range from simple arrhythmias to myocardial infarction. objectives the current study aimed to investigate the relationship between blood carboxyhemoglobin and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin t (hs-ctnt) level with a highly sensitive assay in patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning.

OBJECTIVES This study sought to evaluate if an undetectable (<5 ng/l) high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) level and an electrocardiogram (ECG) without signs of ischemia can rule out myocardial infarction (MI) in the emergency department (ED). BACKGROUND Chest pain is a common symptom often associated with benign conditions, but may be a sign of MI. Because there is no rapid way to r...

BACKGROUND We report the development of a novel high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assay, a modification of the Roche fourth-generation cTnT assay, and validation of the analytical performance of this assay. METHODS Validation included testing of analytical sensitivity, specificity, interferences, and precision. We established the 99th percentile cutoff from healthy reference popul...
متن کاملHigh-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T and Risk of Hypertension.
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of hypertension is often preceded by cardiac structural abnormalities. Thus, we assessed whether high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), a marker of subclinical myocardial damage, can identify individuals at risk for hypertension or left ventricular hypertrophy. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 6516 Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study participants wh...
