Title: Hypertroponinaemia


1
Hypertroponinaemia
  • Michael Stewart
  • CT1 ACCS

2
Case 1
  • 64 year old male
  • Known history of IHD 2x NSTEMI, UA
  • Two hours of central chest pain, identical to
    previous MI
  • ECG Lateral ST depression
  • Trop T 0.07

3
Case 2
  • 72 year old male
  • Presents with three hours central chest pain,
    onset during dancing
  • Nausea, mildly dyspnoeic
  • Ex-smoker hypertensive
  • Not diabetic, no FH of IHD

4
Case 2
  • ECG shows dynamic inferior ST depression
  • Pain eased after IV GTN and morphine with
    resolution of ECG changes
  • Troponin 0.56

5
Case 3
  • 62 year old female
  • Onset of palpitations and dyspnoea on waking
  • GP found irregular pulse, rate 160

6
Case 3
  • Hypertensive no other significant co-morbidity
  • ECG Fast AF, rate 170
  • BP 100/60
  • Pale, clammy, drowsy
  • DC Cardioversion SR restored
  • Troponin 0.13

7
Troponin
  • Component of cardiac and striated muscle
  • Calcium binding initiates conformational change
    to permit myosin to bind to actin filament
  • Myosin conformational cycling on actin acts as
    molecular motor for muscle contraction
  • Cardiac Troponins are specific for cardiac
    myocyte damage
  • Troponin is NOT specific for myocardial infarction

8
PICI/SICI/NICI
  • Primary Ischaemic Cardiac Injury
  • Secondary Ischaemic Cardiac Injury
  • Non-Ischaemic Cardiac Injury

9
(No Transcript)
10
PICI
  • Coronary artery occlusion/stenosis by thrombotic
    disease
  • STEMI/NSTEMI

11
NSTEMI
  • Any two of
  • Typical chest pain
  • Typical ECG changes
  • Rise in cardiac enzymes
  • New definition!

12
2007 Universal Definition
  • Troponin gt 99th centile of reference range
  • (Locally agreed at Trop T gt 0.1)
  • PLUS
  • Ischaemic symptoms
  • ECG changes
  • Regional wall motion abnormality
  • Loss of viable myocardium on imaging

13
(No Transcript)
14
SICI
  • Secondary cause of coronary artery obstruction
  • Embolic disease during PCI during CABG
  • Coronary vasospasm or inflammation
  • Primary vasculitides SLE
  • Increased myocardial oxygen demand
  • Tachyarrythmias prolonged exercise
    sympathomimetic drugs heart failure PE

15
(No Transcript)
16
NICI
  • Direct trauma
  • Penetrating blunt surgical
  • Myocarditis
  • Infectious auto-immune drug/alcohol
    inflammatory
  • Metabolic
  • Renal failure multiple organ failure sepsis

17
Cases
  • Case 1 Typical chest pain, Trop T 0.07
  • PICI, not criteria for NSTEMI
  • Case 2 Typical chest pain, Trop T 0.56
  • NSTEMI
  • Case 3 Fast AF, no pain, Trop T 0.13
  • SICI ( NICI )

18
Questions?
19
Summary
  • Troponins are a sensitive marker of cardiac
    myocyte damage
  • Not all cardiac myocyte damage represents acute
    myocardial infarction
  • Primary, secondary, and non-ischaemic causes exist
