BACKGROUND In 2000 the European Society of Cardiology and the American College of Cardiology published a consensus document revising the definition of myocardial infarction. The usefulness of this revised definition has been challenged. It has been suggested that, rather than any release of cardiac troponin being potentially diagnostic of myocardial infarction, a diagnostic threshold consistent with significant myocardial injury should be defined. METHODS We studied 65 patients undergoing…

Elevated serum cardiac troponin I in older patients with hip fracture: incidence and prognostic significance
TLDR
The authors say that hip fracture thoroughly features the issue since, due to the aging of the population, the number of patients will widely increase in years to come and there are some data indicating that the incidence of cardiac complications is high in the setting of hip fracture.
Cardiac troponin I release after hip surgery correlates with poor long‐term cardiac outcome
TLDR
Tronin I release is common after hip surgery and is associated with a 10‐fold increased incidence of long‐term major cardiac events as compared to patients with normal troponin I levels.
Low negative predictive value of dobutamine stress echocardiography before abdominal aortic surgery.
TLDR
A negative DSE prescribed before scheduled aortic surgery according to ACC/AHA guidelines does not rule out postoperative myocardial necrosis, but the use of new cardiac troponin assays which can detect small amounts of myocardia necrosis results in a lower DSE negative predictive value.
Outcomes in vascular surgical patients with isolated postoperative troponin leak: a meta‐analysis
TLDR
This meta‐analysis aimed to determine the early and intermediate outcomes of vascular surgical patients with an isolated troponin leak following vascular surgery and was strongly predictive of all‐cause mortality at 30 days.
Myocardial injury in patients after an elective abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
TLDR
Data confirm that patients with a postoperative rise in cTnI levels would be classified as patients at a higher risk of complications and a specific cardioprotective treatment, invasive monitoring and a longer ICU stay could be required in these cases.
Therapy insight: prophylaxis, monitoring and treatment of perioperative myocardial ischemia with emphasis on urological surgery
TLDR
An increasingly proactive attitude towards perioperative monitoring for myocardial ischemia and infarction has evolved, and postoperative serial screening with troponin I might be beneficial in high-risk patients undergoing major urological surgery.
Mortality in patients undergoing open aortoiliac surgery: prognostic value of troponin T in the immediate postoperative period.
Prospective controlled cohort study of Troponin I levels in patients undergoing elective spine surgery for degenerative conditions: Prone versus supine position
Methods of detecting atherosclerosis in non-cardiac surgical patients; the role of biochemical markers.
TLDR
The pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and perioperative myocardial infarction is summarized, the possible future role of biomarkers in the risk stratification of patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery is discussed, and the measurement of preoperative levels of these biomarkers with the aim of assessing pre-existing disease activity are discussed.
Postoperative myocardial damages after hip fracture repair are frequent and associated with a poor cardiac outcome: a three-hospital study.

Cardiac Troponin I Predicts Short-Term Mortality in Vascular Surgery Patients
TLDR
Routine postoperative surveillance for cardiac troponin I is useful for identifying patients who have undergone vascular surgery who have an increased risk for short-term mortality and perioperative MI.
Perioperative myocardial cell injury: the role of troponins.
TLDR
Serial troponin measurements during the perioperative period identify pre-, intra- and postoperative myocardial cell injury and help categorize the subsequent risk.
Using postoperative cardiac Troponin-I (cTi) levels to detect myocardial ischaemia in patients undergoing vascular surgery.
Association of cardiac troponin, CK-MB, and postoperative myocardial ischemia with long-term survival after major vascular surgery.
Cardiac troponin I predicts short-term mortality in vascular surgery patients.
TLDR
Whether the authors when stating “postoperative surveillance with cardiac enzymes is not routinely performed in these patients” refer to creatinine kinase and its MB isoenzyme or to cTnI, a contractile protein, reported to be more specific for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction during surgery is unclear.
Comparison of cardiac troponin I and creatine kinase ratios in the detection of myocardial injury after aortic surgery
TLDR
Cardiac troponin I and cTnT are the most sensitive and specific markers of myocardial cell necrosis currently available but are not widely used in surgical practice and compared to CK/CK‐MB ratios in the detection of aortic surgery.
Myocardial infarction redefined--a consensus document of The Joint European Society of Cardiology/American College of Cardiology Committee for the redefinition of myocardial infarction.
TLDR
Biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis may have normalized, depending on the length of time that has passed since the infarct developed, and one of the following criteria satisfies the diagnosis for established MI: development of new pathologic Q waves on serial ECGs.
Surveillance and prevention of major perioperative ischemic cardiac events in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery: a review
TLDR
The best evidence does not support a management strategy of preoperative coronary revascularization before noncardiac surgery, and a proposed diagnostic criteria that reflect the unique features of perioperative MIs is proposed.
Cardiac troponin I measurement with the ACCESS immunoassay system: analytical and clinical performance characteristics.
TLDR
The ACCESS cardiac troponin I immunoassay appears to show sensitivity and specificity comparable with those of both CK-MB mass and Stratus cTnI assays for the diagnosis of MI in patients presenting within 12 h of onset of symptoms.
Association of perioperative myocardial ischemia with cardiac morbidity and mortality in men undergoing noncardiac surgery. The Study of Perioperative Ischemia Research Group.
TLDR
In high-risk patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, early postoperative myocardial ischemia is an important correlate of adverse cardiac outcomes, and no other clinical, historical, or perioperative variable was associated with ischemic events.
