Troponin T
Troponin T High-sensitivity Troponin T assay Conventional Troponin T assay Further reading:
• High-sensitivity = able to measure much more precisely at much lower concentration
• Raises within 1 hour of cardiac injury
• High negative predictive value
• 99th percentile: 14 ng/L (different lab might have different cut-off point)
• Unit: ng/L
• Unit: ng/mL

High-
sensitivity
Sensitivity (in statistics) • Meaning: the proportion of people with the disease who have the sign (Example: test A has sensitivity of 80% — means performing test A will pick up 80% of the people with disease X) Troponin T High-sensitivity Troponin T assay Conventional Troponin T assay Further reading: Sensitivity (in statistics) • Meaning: the proportion of people with the disease who have the sign (Example: test A has sensitivity of 80% — means performing test A will pick up 80% of the people with disease X)
