Clinical Relevance of Troponin T Profile Following Cardiac Surgery

Clinical Relevance of Troponin T Profile Following Cardiac Surgery

Background: Peak post-operative cardiac troponin T (cTnT) independently predicts mid- and long-term outcome of cardiac surgery patients. A few studies however have reported two peaks of cTnT over the first 48–72 h following myocardial reperfusion. The aim of the current study was to better understan...
