Increased safety in diagnosing cardiac infarction with more sensitive analytical method

(University of Gothenburg) Five percent more cardiac infarctions detected and 11 percent fewer patients suffering a relapse. That is the result of a study of more than 80,000 patients in which two cardiac damage markers (conventional troponin and the newer, high-sensitive troponin T) were compared with each other.
