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 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 کاملHigh-sensitive cardiac troponin T measurements in prediction of non-cardiac complications after major abdominal surgery.
BACKGROUND Postoperative non-cardiac complication rates are as high as 11-28% after high-risk abdominal procedures. Emerging evidence indicates that postoperative cardiac troponin T elevations are associated with adverse outcome in non-cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between postoperative high-sensitive cardiac troponin T elevations and non-cardiac compl...
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...
متن کاملKinetics of Highly Sensitive Troponin T after Cardiac Surgery
Perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) confers a considerable risk in cardiac surgery settings; finding the ideal biomarker seems to be an ideal goal. Our aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of highly sensitive troponin T (hsTnT) in cardiac surgery settings and to define a diagnostic level for PMI diagnosis. This was a single-center prospective observational study analyzing data from a...
