High Sensitive Troponin-I, Quantitative

High Sensitive Troponin-I, Quantitative is a screening test that identifies and predicts whether an individual is at low, moderate, or elevated risk for future cardiac diseases. Troponin-I is a protein that is present in the heart muscles and is released into the bloodstream in case of any damage to the heart. Early detection allows prioritization of care for those at higher risk and helps prevent possible complications. This test helps in avoiding unnecessary investigations and treatments in those at lower risk. Additionally, this test helps to monitor the treatment response in individuals with a history of heart disease or those with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and have symptoms like chest pain, shoulder pain, sweating, and breathlessness.
