When used to evaluate suspected NSTEMI among patients who present to the emergency department (ED), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) and troponin I (hs-cTnI) diverge for both diagnosis ...
Switching from a conventional to a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I assay in emergency departments is associated with a reduction in both mortality at 1 year and new admissions for myocardial ...
Adding high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays on top of conventional risk-prediction methods can potentially improve primary prevention efforts, according to a new meta-analysis. While best known ...
