  1. 1. Stable high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels and outcomes

    Författare :Andreas Roos; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Many patients who seek medical attention because of chest pain in the emergency department (ED), without myocardial infarction (MI) as a final diagnosis, will have cardiac troponin (cTn) levels above the upper normal limit when measured with the high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assay. In patients with acute medical diseases other than MI which may affect hs-cTn levels, treatment strategies focus on underlying conditions. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Assessment of patients with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome : the use of high sensitive cardiac troponin T and a risk score

    Författare :Dina Melki; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :troponin;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to evaluate patients with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome with regard to early diagnosis and prognosis by the use of high sensitive cardiac troponin T and a risk score: a low-risk group in which admission and further investigations may not be necessary. In paper I, the early diagnostic value of high sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) was compared with conventional cardiac troponin assays in 233 patients with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

  5. 5. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T in the emergency department : admissions, resource utilization and outcomes

    Författare :Nadia Bandstein; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patients presenting with chest pain in the emergency department (ED) may have myocardial infarction (MI) requiring immediate treatment. High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) was recently introduced as a biomarker that aids in determining whether the patient requires hospital admission or can be safely discharged home. LÄS MER
