Cardiac troponins in intensive care
The cardiac troponins are integral components of the myofibrillary apparatus and they regulate muscle contraction. The measurement of cardiac troponins has replaced other biomarkers for the specific detection of myocardial necrosis and for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction. The tissue specificity plus sensitivity of the measurement technology has meant that cardiac damage can be detected i...

Objective: To review the use of cardiac troponins as biomarkers for myocardial injury in human and veterinary medicine. Data sources: Data sources included scientific reviews and original research publications. Human data synthesis: Cardiac troponins have been extensively studied in human medicine. Finding an elevated cardiac troponin level carries important diagnostic and prognostic informatio...

PARADIGM SHIFT OF CARDIAC TROPONINS Until recently, cardiac troponins (troponin I and T) have been considered markers of myocardial necrosis, especially in the setting of acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Current percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) guidelines also give a class I recommendation for the measurement of cardiac biomarkers including troponins in ACS patients who underwent PCI. Ho...
متن کاملTroponin testing at the point of care: What is needed, and when?
The ability to measure the cardiac troponins (cTnI and cTnT) has produced a paradigm shift in the assessment of patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The availability of immunoassays for cardiac troponins, a milestone in the care of patients with chest pain, led to two new definitions of myocardial infarction and to the publication of several position papers and guidelines [1-3].

Objective: Acute chest pain is an important and frequently occurring symptom in patients. Chest pain is often a sign of ischemic heart disease. Chest pain due to suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is responsible for a large and ijncreasing number of hospital attendances and admissions. Current practice for suspected ACS involves troponin testing 10–12 hours after symptom o...
