Troponin elevations in patients with chronic cardiovascular disease: An analysis of current evidence and significance

Abstract: Serum troponin elevation above the 99th percentile of the upper reference limit in healthy subjects (<0.01 ng/ml measured using currently available high-sensitivity cardiac troponin laboratory assays) is required to establish the diagnosis the diagnosis of myocardial necrosis in acute cardiovascular syndromes, as well as guide prognosis and therapy. In the perioperative period, for patients with cardiac disease undergoing noncardiac surgery, it is a particularly critical biomarker universally used to assess th… Show more

“…The prevalence of the targeted disease was directly associated with the NPV specifically population under consideration, which represents a probability of negative test outcome. It becomes essential for establishing the NPV for every health facility in order that a negative test can be interpreted by an attending physician [24]. Strengths and Limitations: Despite the small sample size, this retrospective observational study has important strengths including post-operative factors such as incidence of arrhythmias, type of arrhythmias, examination of the interaction of cTnI and CPB levels with arrhythmias.…”

“…Lactate was the second best diagnostic discriminator of myocardial injury with an optimal “cutoff” value of >2 mmol/L at immediately after aortic declamping (AUC, 0.89 [±SE 0.04, 95% CI: 0.80–0.96]; sensitivity 83.33%; specificity 80%; likelihood ratio (+) 4.16) [ Figure 8 ]. [ 29 30 31 ] cTn-I was the third best diagnostic discriminator of myocardial injury with an optimal “cutoff” value of > 2.1 ng/mL at immediately after aortic declamping (AUC, 0.88 [±SE 0.04, 95% CI: 0.80–0.95]; sensitivity 81.25%; specificity 80%; likelihood ratio (+) 4.06) [ Figure 8 ]. CK-MB was the fourth best diagnostic discriminator of myocardial injury with an optimal “cutoff” value of > 58 log units/mL after coming off bypass before decannulation (AUC, 0.85 [±SE 0.05, 95% CI: 0.78–0.94]; sensitivity 77.08%; specificity 80%; likelihood ratio (+) 3.85) [ Table 4 and Figure 8 ].…”

“…1,2,5 Similarly, early detection of raised troponin level in blood can help in diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction. [22][23][24] We can adapt our technique for other rare analytes by replacing biotin with another binding antibody for the respective target analytes. target particles present within a complex mixture by either attracting or repelling these target particles from the electrodes.…”
