Rapid detection of myocardial infarction with a sensitive troponin test.
Rapid identification and treatment of patients with a myocardial infarction (MI) is mandatory. We studied the diagnostic capacities of a sensitive troponin assay for detection of MI in emergency department patients within 2 hours after arrival. The study included 157 patients suspected of having non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome. Blood was drawn on arrival (T0) and 2 (T2), 6, and 12 hour...
متن کاملAn Aptamer-based Biosensor for Troponin I Detection in Diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction
Background: Acute myocardial infarction (MI) accounts for one third of deaths. Cardiac troponin I (TnI) is a reliable biomarker of cardiac muscle tissue injury and is employed in the early diagnosis of MI.Objectives: In this study, a molecular method is introduced to early diagnosis of MI by rapid detection of TnI.Materials and Methods: The detection method was based on electrochemical aptasens...
متن کاملEarly diagnosis of myocardial infarction with sensitive cardiac troponin assays.
BACKGROUND The rapid and reliable diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is a major unmet clinical need. METHODS We conducted a multicenter study to examine the diagnostic accuracy of new, sensitive cardiac troponin assays performed on blood samples obtained in the emergency department from 718 consecutive patients who presented with symptoms suggestive of acute myocardial infarction. Cardi...
متن کاملRapid Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction
To improve the specificity of biochemical markers of myocardial infarction (MI) a method to measure cardiac troponin-I (CTn-I) was developed. CTn-I is a protein unique to cardiac muscle and is released after MI. Consecutive 150 patients admitted to the coronary care unit was studied. Value of CTn-I was determined in all samples. CTn-I concentration in the MI patients group was increased com...
متن کاملSensitive Troponin Assay and the Classification of Myocardial Infarction
BACKGROUND Lowering the diagnostic threshold for troponin is controversial because it may disproportionately increase the diagnosis of myocardial infarction in patients without acute coronary syndrome. We assessed the impact of lowering the diagnostic threshold of troponin on the incidence, management, and outcome of patients with type 2 myocardial infarction or myocardial injury. METHODS Con...
