PRODUCT NAME: |
ST AIA-PACK cTnI 3rd-Gen |
INTENDED USE: |
ST AIA-PACK cTnI 3rd-Gen is designed for IN-VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE for the quantitative measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnl) in human serum and heparinized plasma or EDTA plasma on Tosoh AIA immunoassay analyzers. |
SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION OF TEST: |
Troponin I (TnI) has three isoforms: cardiac, fast skeletal and slow skeletal and out of them cardiac troponin I (cTnI) is highly specific to the myocardium. When the myocardium is damaged, cTnI is released into the blood. The level of cTnI becomes abnormally high 3-4 hours after the onset of acute myocardial infarction and reaches the peak 10-16 hours after the onset. The level of cTnI remains abnormally high for 5-8 days after the onset. When compared to Myoglobin or CK-MB, the degree of its change in relation to the cut-off value is much greater for cTnI (undetectable in healthy individuals) and as a result, it is possible to detect minute myocardial lesions. In addition, increased cTnI levels in heart failure patients indicates latent cardiomyopathy. |
