Cardiac troponin T as a predictor of cardiac death in patients with left ventricular dysfunction

Cardiac troponin T as a predictor of cardiac death in patients with left ventricular dysfunction

Background: Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) has been reported to be associated with cardiac mortality. In the present study, we evaluated the role of routine assessment of cTnT as a predictor of future cardiac death in patients with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.
