Overview
High Sensitive Troponin-I, Quantitative is a screening test that identifies and predicts whether an individual is at low, moderate, or elevated risk for future cardiac diseases. Troponin-I is a protein that is present in the heart muscles and is rele...
Risk assessment
Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS),Heart Failure,Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD),Risk Prediction in Non-ACS Patients:General Population: Elevated troponin I levels, even in the absence of acute symptoms, can predict future cardiovascular events such as myoc...
Ranges
Normal Range: Troponin I levels are typically below the 99th percentile of the upper reference limit (URL). This can be assay-specific but usually around 0.04 ng/mL.
Elevated Levels: Values above this threshold suggest myocardial injury.
Test result interpretation
1. Understanding Troponin I
Troponin I is a protein found in cardiac muscle, and its presence in the blood is a marker of myocardial injury. Elevated levels of troponin I are indicative of heart muscle damage, commonly due to myocardial infarction (h...
