Troponin T kinetics may aid perioperative MI detection after CABG; supports biomarker evaluation but leaves clinical adoption to prospective trials.
Does the temporal release of Troponin T, CK-MB, and myoglobin differentiate patients with and without perioperative infarction after coronary bypass surgery?
Troponin T and CK-MB mass are effective markers for detecting perioperative myocardial infarction after coronary bypass surgery, with Troponin T offering a prolonged detection window.
