Comparison of conventional and high-sensitivity troponin in patients with chest pain: A collaborative meta-analysis

Abstract: High-sensitivity troponin has significantly greater early sensitivity and NPV for the diagnosis of AMI at the cost of specificity and positive predictive value, which may enable early rule in/out of AMI in patients with chest pain. Baseline hs-cTn elevation in the setting of negative cTn is also associated with increased nonfatal myocardial infarction or death during follow-up.

“…Additionally, since the hs‐TnT assay was approved for use in the United States in 2017, we could not use these assays in our patients. Though the hs‐TnT assay has demonstrated greater sensitivity and negative predictive value in AMI, there are limited data comparing these 2 assays in the septic population 37. The development of the sepsis‐3 criteria could influence the interpretation of the results of this study 38.…”

“…High-sensitivity troponins allow earlier detection and have shown superiority in ACS diagnosis compared to conventional troponins [21,22]. As a consequence, high-sensitivity troponins are now used as the reference for patients presenting with chest pain and/or suspected ACS [21,22]. However, copeptin, by its independent pathophysiology and its rapid release after ACS, could further improve diagnostic accuracy in this setting.…”

“…Owing to the high proportion of patients who present in ED with suspected ACS, new troponin assays have been developed to overcome this major limitation. High-sensitivity troponins allow earlier detection and have shown superiority in ACS diagnosis compared to conventional troponins [21,22]. As a consequence, high-sensitivity troponins are now used as the reference for patients presenting with chest pain and/or suspected ACS [21,22].…”

“…Finally, comparison of conventional and high-sensitivity assays shows that high-sensitivity assays detect prognostically significant disease missed by conventional sensitive assays. 5 The third theme is the use of additional biomarkers to allow early discharge from the emergency department. The concept is to measure hs cTn plus the extra marker on admission.…”
