A new test has been developed in Turku, Finland, that helps in separating heart attack patients from those whose cardiac troponin values are elevated due to renal insufficiency. Blood sample tests for ...
BOSTON (Reuters) - New ultra-sensitive blood tests can rapidly detect when heart muscle is dying from a heart attack, even from the moment the patient arrives in the emergency room, according to two ...
BEDFORD PARK, AUSTRALIA — Use of high-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT) assays, compared with standard TnT assays, may result in only modest improvement in evaluating emergency-department patients with ...
A simple £5 blood test for the protein troponin could predict a person's risk of heart attacks and strokes with greater accuracy than ever before, research suggests. Troponin is found in heart muscle ...
Certain blood tests have been recalled due to risk for false negative or falsely low cardiac troponin levels. The FDA designated the recall as serious due to the risks of a missed or delayed MI ...
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 ...
A single troponin level measurement test and an electrocardiogram may be sufficient to rule out the risk of a heart attack in patients complaining of chest pain, according to a study in the Journal of ...
(HealthDay News) — A high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) test may be helpful in identifying early heart damage, eventually standing alongside cholesterol tests as a standard screening tool ...
A new test has been developed in Turku, Finland, that helps in separating heart attack patients from those whose cardiac troponin values are elevated due to renal insufficiency. Blood sample tests for ...
Background and Goal: Chest pain is a common but challenging symptom for general practitioners to evaluate, as it can be caused by both serious conditions and more benign issues. This study assessed ...
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 ...
A study published in the European Heart Journal could help predict the likelihood of dementia up to 25 years in advance. The research found a link between increased levels of cardiac troponin, a ...
