Abstract

Objective:To evaluate the prognostic value of serum troponin Ⅰ(cTnI) in unstable angina pectoris(UA).Methods:Serum cTnI,creatine kinase isoenzyme MB(CK-MB) were simultaneously measured in 25 healthy subjects,96 UA patients, routine treatment was administered and cardiac events were observed closely within two weeks.Results:Thirteen of 28 UA patients whose cTnI was≥0 3μg/L developed cardiac events, only 3 of 68 UA patients whose cTnI was 0 3 μg/L developed cardiac events within two weeks,there was a significant difference( P 0 05).Conclusion:There is a clinical value of serum cTnI measurement in identifying the high risk patients of UA. The patients whose cTnI was≥0 3μg/L indicate a poor prognosis.
