Abstract Objective: Cardiac troponin I cTnI is a highly sensitive and specific marker for
postoperative prediction of patients outcome after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) …

AIM: All types of cardiac surgery involve considerable injury to the myocardium. However,
little is known about the prognostic value of cardiac troponin (cTnI), which is a cardiac …

BACKGROUND: The optimal timing for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients
with recent acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is unclear. Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is a widely …

Background Cardiac troponins are frequently measured as part of the pre-operative work-up
of patients prior to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). The utility of measuring …

BACKGROUND: Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) measured after heart surgery has been associated
with operative mortality. We sought to determine whether measuring cTnI after heart surgery …

Abstract Objectives: Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) is a well-known marker for myocardial
damage in patients undergoing aorto-coronary bypass grafting (CABG) peaking 6–8 h after …

Background The value of postoperative cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has been shown to indicate
a higher risk of in-hospital death after cardiac surgery. The authors therefore assessed the …

Study objectives: Elevated levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) have been associated with
adverse short-term and long-term outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients and …

It has previously been reported that cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is useful in predicting the
postoperative course after cardiac surgery, and that elevated serum cTnI levels are …

Purpose: Troponin is a specific marker of myocardial damage. Increased troponins,
however, are observed after almost all cardiac surgery. The clinical significance of this …
