| Abstract;Several cardiac biomarkers have emerged as strong predictors of risk among patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and are now routinely available to clinicians. Detection of an early phase biomarker specific for myocardial damage would provide better diagnostic and therapeutic decisions for patients with suspicious ACS. Elevated levels of troponin I (TnI) or T (TnT), heart-type fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP), and creatine kinase (CK) MB are associated with higher rates of death and recurrent ischemic events. The simple and rapid whole blood assays for TnT, H-FABP and myoglobin have been developed and available to determine the diagnosis and evaluate the risk. (author abst.) |
