Variability of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and I in asymptomatic patients receiving hemodialysis

Sumario: | Abstract Variation of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and T (hs-cTn) during hemodialysis has been observed. Observational studies demonstrated the increased incidence of adverse cardiovascular events after long compared to short interdialytic intervals. Therefore, we aimed to compare variation of hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT before and after hemodialysis and between short and long interdialytic intervals. We enrolled 200 asymptomatic patients receiving regular hemodialysis. The hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT levels were measured before and after hemodialysis on the day after short and long interdialytic intervals. Mean age was 62.3 ± 14.8 years (Male 55.5%). Prevalence of increased hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT was 34.5% and 99.0%, respectively. The median ± interquartile range of hs-cTnT increased significantly after hemodialysis during short and long interdialytic intervals. However, hs-cTnI level did not increase after hemodialysis during short and long intervals. We found that levels of hs-cTnI and T did not differ between short interdialytic and long interdialytic intervals. We demonstrated higher prevalence of elevated hs-cTnT in patients with regular hemodialysis compared to hs-cTnI. The rise of hs-cTnT was observed immediately after hemodialysis but no significant change of hs-cTnI was noted. Accordingly, hs-cTnI may be preferable as a diagnostic marker in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction than hs-cTnT. |
