Cardiac troponin in the intensive care unit
Clinical and Investigative Medicine, 10/06/09
Lim W – Cardiac troponin elevation is common and observed in 40 to 50% of critically ill medical and surgical patients. Elevated levels appear to identify patients at increased risk for death in the intensive care unit or hospital setting. This finding, and its relation to myocardial infarction and acute coronary syndromes, requires prospective study to better understand the implications for diagnosis and management.
