First experience with high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T determination

Abstract

The aim of our study was to monitor analytical and clinical performance of new high-sensitivity troponin T method. Elecsys 2010 system (Roche) was used to assess the serum levels of hs-cTnT.

High-sensitivity method has adequate analytical performance. Our data indicate increase of hs-cTnT that can be monitoring of minor myocardial injury in AKS patients or chronic cardiac diseases.
