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 ...
Using age-specific thresholds for troponin measurement would more accurately diagnose myocardial injury when assessing patients for suspected myocardial infarction (MI), a new study suggests. The ...
In a recent study published in the journal BMJ, a team of researchers from the United Kingdom evaluated the use of a high-sensitivity assay to measure cardiac troponin I and its impact on myocardial ...
