Summary

High-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) is a cornerstone for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it is often challenging to diagnose AMI in patients with elevated hs-cTnT before a rise or fall of hs-cTnT can be observed. The elevations of hs-cTnT are caused not only by AMI, but also by other cardiac or even non-cardiac diseases. Thresholds above the 99th percentile have been proposed to improve the specificity and to accelerate the rule in of myocardial infarction. This study aimed to find a more accurate cut-off value to rule in AMI in patients with elevated hs-cTnT.
