What is the prognostic value of troponin T in unstable coronary artery disease?
The prognostic value of troponin T in unstable coronary artery disease has been studied in the FRISC II substudy. It was found that elevated levels of troponin T are associated with an increased risk of recurrent coronary events and death. Additionally, it was also found that troponin T levels can be used to stratify patients into risk groups, with higher levels associated with a worse prognosis.
