Introduction: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is the key player in the diagnosis of an acute
coronary syndrome. In the light of normal ECG findings, the diagnosis can be missed. The …

The availability of troponins as cardiac markers in the diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome
is invaluable. However, their elevation can sometimes lead the physician astray. We report a …

Troponin elevation is usually synonymous with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Although
sensitive for ACS, the elevation of serum troponin, in the absence of clinical evidence of …

Introduction Elevated Cardiac enzymes are associated with high morbidity and mortality. A
significant subset of patients referred to the cardiac service has raised troponin levels and …

Cardiac troponins are the most sensitive and specific biomarkers of myocardial cellular
damage. Elevation of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) indicates myocardial infarction and plays a …

Introduction Troponins are known to be released in response to cardiac damage and
therefore are the biomarkers of choice for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction …

Cardiac troponins are the most sensitive and specific markers of myocardial injury. In fact,
the Joint European Society of Cardiology/American College of Cardiology committee for the …

Background Cardiac troponin T and I are important diagnostic and prognostic markers in
patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Troponin elevations in various non-ACS …

Introduction The elevation of troponin levels directly corresponds to the extent of myocardial
injury. Here we present a case of a robust rise in cardiac biomarkers that correspond to …

Acute coronary syndromes comprise a large spectrum of clinical conditions ranging from
unstable angina pectoris to acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Chest pain is usually …
