Why the study?
Does elevated serum cTnI correlate with increased severity of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with chronic heart failure?
Does elevated serum cTnI correlate with increased severity of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with chronic heart failure?
In patients with chronic heart failure, detectable serum cTnI is independently associated with an increased burden of ventricular arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia.
Detectable cTnI signals higher VT risk in chronic HF; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
