Release kinetics of early ischaemic biomarkers in a clinical model of acute myocardial infarction
ObjectiveTo determine the release kinetics of different biomarkers with potential as novel early ischaemic biomarkers in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS); it is difficult to establish the detailed release kinetics in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).MethodsWe analysed the release kinetics of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase (sFlt-1), ischaemia modified albumin (IMA), and heart-type fatty acid binding protein (hFABP) in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy who were undergoing transcoronary ablation of septal hypertrophy (TASH), a procedure mimicking AMI. Consecutive patients (n=21) undergoing TASH were included. Blood samples were collected before T…
TCT-34 Prediction of acute kidney injury after TAVR by new biomarkers
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Routinely used biomarkers such as creatinine show a diagnostic gap in the first hours after kidney injury. Thus, new biomarkers for earlier
