Common causes of troponin elevations in the absence of acute myocardial infarction: incidence and clinical significance.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cardiac troponin is a preferred biomarker of acute myocardial infarction (MI). Unfortunately, elevation of troponin can be detected in a variety of conditions other than acute MI. This review focuses on the incidence and clinical significance of increased troponin in conditions commonly associated with troponin elevations, particularly in those that may resemble acute MI.

Current guidelines for the diagnosis of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction are largely based on an elevated troponin level. While this rapid and sensitive blood test is certainly valuable in the appropriate setting, its widespread use in a variety of clinical scenarios may lead to the detection of troponin elevation in the absence of thrombotic acute coronary syndromes. Many disease...

متن کاملstudy of platelet parameters in the patients with acute myocardial infarction referred to Ali Shariati Hospital in 2018
Introdution: The rapid and accurate diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is essential for effective treatment. Recently, troponin has been introduced as a biochemical marker for early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Platelet parameters (P-LCR, MPV, PDW) play a key role in the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome. The aim of this study was to evaluate platelet indexes in the ...
