Podcasts about Troponin

Alan interviews Dr. David Clark about a near-fatal heart attack he suffered almost two years ago. Dave describes the dramatic details of the event, from initially mistaking his symptoms for heartburn to his wife heroically rushing him to the emergency room. The episode delves into the importance of being your own health advocate, particularly for dentists and other seemingly healthy individuals who may be at risk without knowing it. Dave emphasizes that a heart attack is one of the few life-threatening events that can be largely preventable if people are armed with the right knowledge. He shares key tests and prevention strategies he learned from his brother, a metabolic cardiologist, and warns against common misconceptions and tests that offer a false sense of security. The conversation highlights the emotional and physical toll the event took on him and his family, ultimately leading him to a renewed perspective on life and his dental career. Key takeaways: Dr. Clark discussed several key prevention ideas and tests that he believes are crucial for all listeners to consider, especially those who appear healthy but may have underlying risks. Be Your Own Health Advocate: Don't blindly trust a single doctor's diagnosis, especially if your symptoms don't align with what they say. Dr. Clark's initial symptoms were dismissed as heartburn by his concierge cardiologist, a diagnosis that could have been fatal. The Troponin Blood Test: If you suspect you've had a cardiac event, no matter how minor, go to the emergency room and specifically ask for a blood test for troponin. Troponin is a protein released when heart muscle is damaged, and it can be detected in your bloodstream for up to 48 hours after an event. A positive result would have led to an immediate diagnosis and intervention for Dr. Clark, preventing the heart attack and damage. Get a CAC (Coronary Artery Calcium) Score: This is a key test for "the healthy guy heart attack." A high CAC score indicates a genetic predisposition to having calcified plaque in your arteries. While a stress test only provides short-term security, a high CAC score is a significant warning sign that a rupture in the plaque could lead to a sudden, fatal heart attack. Be Cautious of Misleading Tests: Dr. Clark and his brother identified several tests that can give a false sense of security or are simply not effective in predicting a heart attack, including the standard stress test and most whole-body scans. Consider a GLP-1 Medication: Based on his brother's recommendation, Dr. Clark started taking a GLP-1 medication (like Ozempic or Wegovy) to reduce inflammation, which is a known contributor to cardiovascular problems. He notes that these medications are not just for weight loss but have significant, positive metabolic effects.

In unserer 77. Folge spricht Sebastian mit Dr. Christoph Wasser über das Thema Endokrinologische Notfälle. Klingt kompliziert und ist es auch aber sie arbeiten sich von der einfachen HYpoglycämie durch zunehmend komplexere Fallbeispiele. Es geht unter anderem um sehr spannende Fragen z.B. welche endokrinologischen Notfälle können eine Troponinämie auslösen, Was ist eine Thyreotoxische Kriseoder ein Myxödem-Koma. Und wann ist ein Pat. normal komisch oder so komisch komisch ds ein akuter Handlungsbedarf vorliegt. Viel Spass beim Hören und wir freuen uns wie immer über Feedbacks oder vielleicht auch mal einen Mystery Case.

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Multisite Validation of a Strategy to Identify Very Low Risk Emergency Department Patients Without Troponin.

CardioNerds (Dr. Claire Cambron and Dr. Rawan Amir) join Dr. Ayan Purkayastha, Dr. David Song, and Dr. Justin Wang from NewYork-Presbyterian Queens for an afternoon of hot pot in downtown Flushing. They discuss a case of congenital heart disease presenting in adulthood. Expert commentary is provided by Dr. Su Yuan, and audio editing for this episode was performed by CardioNerds Intern, Julia Marques Fernandes. A 53-year-old woman with a past medical history of hypertension visiting from Guyana presented with 2 days of chest pain. EKG showed dominant R wave in V1 with precordial T wave inversions. Troponin levels were normal, however she was started on therapeutic heparin with plan for left heart catheterization. Her chest X-ray revealed dextrocardia and echocardiogram was suspicious for the systemic ventricle being the morphologic right ventricle with reduced systolic function and the pulmonic ventricle being the morphologic left ventricle. Patient underwent coronary CT angiography which confirmed diagnosis of congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) as well as minimal non-obstructive coronary artery disease. Her chest pain spontaneously improved and catheterization was deferred. Patient opted to follow with a congenital specialist back in her home country upon discharge.   US Cardiology Review is now the official journal of CardioNerds! Submit your manuscript here.

Pearls- A Case of Congenital Heart Disease Presenting in Adulthood Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries (CCTGA) is a rare and unique structural heart disease which presents as an isolated combination of atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance resulting in physiologically corrected blood flow.   CCTGA occurs due to L looping of the embryologic heart tube. As a result, the morphologic right ventricle outflows into the systemic circulation, and the morphologic left ventricle outflows into the pulmonary circulation.   CCTGA is frequently associated with ventricular septal defects, pulmonic stenosis, tricuspid valve abnormalities and dextrocardia.   CCTGA is often asymptomatic in childhood and can present later in adulthood with symptoms of morphologic right ventricular failure, tricuspid regurgitation, or cardiac arrhythmias.   Systemic atrioventricular valve (SAVV) intervention can be a valuable option for treating right ventricular failure and degeneration of the morphologic tricuspid valve.  notes- A Case of Congenital Heart Disease Presenting in Adulthood Notes were drafted by Ayan Purkayastha.  What is the pathogenesis of Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries?   Occurs due to disorders in the development of the primary cardiac tube   Bulboventricular part of the primary heart forms a left-sided loop instead of right-sided loop, leading to the normally located atria being connected to morphologically incompatible ventricles   This is accompanied by abnormal torsion of the aortopulmonary septum (transposition of the great vessels)   As a result, there is ‘physiologic correction' of blood flow. Non-oxygenated blood flows into the right atrium and through the mitral valve into the morphologic left ventricle, which pumps blood into the pulmonary artery. Oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins flows into the left atrium and through the tricuspid valve to the morphologic right ventricle, which pumps blood to the aorta. Compared with standard anatomy, the flow of blood is appropriate, but it is going through the incorrect ventricle on both sides.  Frequent conditions associated with CCTGA include VSD, pulmonic stenosis and dextrocardia

Darshan H. Brahmbhatt, Podcast Editor of JACC: Advances, discusses a recently published original research paper on Derivation and Validation of ESC-0/1-h Algorithm for High-Sensitivity Troponin T and I in Cancer Patients.

Contributor: Taylor Lynch, MD Educational Pearls: How do we risk-stratify chest-pain patients? One option is the HEART score This score predicts a patient's 6-week risk of a major adverse cardiac event. Ex. Cath procedure, CABG, PCI, death H stands for History Ask 1) Was the patient diaphoretic? 2) Did they have nausea and/or vomiting? 3) Did the pain radiate down the right or left arm? 4) Was it exertional? Yes to one = one point. Two or more = two points. E stands for EKG One point for left ventricular hypertrophy, t-wave inversions, new bundle-branch blocks. No points for first degree AV block, benign early repolarization, or QT-prolongation Two points for ST-depression A stands for Age >65 gets two points 45-64 gets one point R stands for Risk factors Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, family history, smoking, previous MI, previous CABG, stroke, peripheral arterial disease 1-2 risk factors get 1 point More than two risk factors gets two points T stands for Troponin 1-3x upper limit of normal gets one point >3x upper limit of normal gets two points This gives you a score between zero and ten 0-3 points, patients have a ~2% chance of an adverse event These patients likely go home 4-6 points, patients have a ~20% chance of an adverse event These patients get admitted or expedited outpatient stress test/echo 7-10 points, patients have a ~60% chance of an adverse event Admit and call cardiology.

In this episode, Dr. Valentin Fuster discusses a study showing that elevated cardiac troponin levels after intense exercise in middle-aged recreational athletes are common but not linked to hidden coronary artery disease. The findings raise important questions about the origin and significance of these elevations, highlighting the need for long-term follow-up.

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich reviews a paper published in The Bovine Practitioner with the first author Madeline Mancke from Kansas State University. The objective of this study was to determine potential associations between Cardiac Troponin I (cTnI) serum concentration of cattle at initial bovine respiratory disease (BRD) treatment with the risk of retreatment or mortality at 60 days. BRD is the most significant disease in beef cattle and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Developing prognostic tools may be valuable for managing individual cases. cTnI is a protein that is released into the circulatory system after myocardial damage and may be useful as a biomarker for prognostication of BRD cases. Mancke walks through the results of the paper which demonstrated that 8/318 samples had high cTnI levels and animals with high cTn1 concentrations had a significantly greater probability of not finishing the 60-day post-enrollment period. Cattle with high cardiac troponin concentrations at initial BRD treatment were more likely to have negative clinical outcomes but, in this study, very few animals had high cTnI levels. Mancke provides information about potential future research opportunities to better manage BRD cases in the feedyard.  The Bovine Practitioner is the peer-reviewed journal published by AABP. The journal publishes original research, case studies, review articles and case studies that are intended to provide information to the practicing cattle veterinarian. The journal is available open-access online and print volumes are available for purchase. There are no publication fees for authors and the peer review and submission process is managed online.

Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, and co-host Satoshi Shoji, MD, welcome Kenji Inoue, MD, to discuss the DROP-Asian ACS study—a multicenter trial evaluating the 0/1-hour algorithm for chest pain assessment across 12 hospitals in five Asian countries presented as a Late Breaking Clinical Trial at the ACC.25. Dr. Inoue shares key findings from this cluster-randomized trial of nearly 4,000 patients, highlighting the algorithm's practicality in Asia's diverse healthcare settings. Despite regional differences, the 0/1-hour approach—requiring only two high-sensitivity troponin measurements—proved effective and accessible, even in low-resource environments. He also reflects on presenting at ACC, the importance of early preparation, and the growth that comes from taking on complex international research. Dr. Inoue encourages young clinicians to embrace challenges and actively engage with global networks for clinical research development.

In this week's replay episode from 2 years ago, we review the important topic of troponin levels in children. What is an abnormal high sensitivity troponin level in children and do the levels vary based upon the assay? What are the differences between high sensitivity troponin I and T levels? Are there differences between boys and girls? Why would using the 97.5%ile upper reference limit result in a more reliable 'line in the sand' in comparison with the more traditional, high sensitivity troponin level cut off of 99th%ile. These are amongst the questions we review with this week's author, Dr. J. Bill McEvoy, Professor of Preventive Cardiology at University of Galway, Ireland. DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.063281

Many Coders tend to read a physician's note and make assumptions without first reading the coding guidelines. One particular entry, which is found in many admission notes is “elevated troponin”. An elevated troponin does not always mean that a heart attack has occurred, many many coders will leap to that conclusion before reviewing the documentation.
