Apr 15, 2021 · Elevated levels of highly sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) have shown good correlation with the severity of the BCI, adverse clinical outcome, and poor mid-term (3-year) survival in patients with blunt chest trauma [26, 27].
The purpose of the current study was to review the prognostic value of elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) in patients with severe blunt chest injuries. We hypothesized that elevated hs-cTnT result in poor outcomes in this subgroup of severe trauma patients.

5 days ago · Background Troponin elevation is frequently observed in various scenarios in the Emergency Department (ED), yet there is a paucity of studies investigating simultaneously measured high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) and troponin I (hs-cTnI) within a diverse cohort in a clinical setting. Methods All patients who underwent troponin testing at a single center were eligible for this ...
Mar 16, 2024 · In patients with chest discomfort, an hs-cTnT concentration of greater than 100 ng/L, but not the ESC-recommended threshold of greater than 52 ng/L, provides an acceptable performance for identifying patients at higher risk for AMI.
