What is the Troponin I test used for?

The Troponin I test is helpful in the diagnosis and monitoring of heart injury or an attack. When a patient exhibits symptoms of a heart attack, such as chest discomfort, fast heart rate, nausea, vomiting, exhaustion, and shortness of breath, this test is recommended.

Troponin I is the preferred test for a suspected heart attack or to monitor angina (a disorder that produces chest pain by limiting blood supply to the heart). It is more specific to heart damage, and the levels remain elevated for a longer period of time. It aids in preventing further heart damage and reducing the risk of future heart attacks.

Since it is an accurate test, Troponin I is unique to cardiac muscle; skeletal muscle injury does not affect the test. Also, injections, accidents, and medicines that can harm muscles do not affect cardiac troponin levels.

This test may also be utilized if you have been diagnosed with a heart attack and are being treated at a hospital. Typically, testing is conducted twice or more throughout 24 hours. This is done to examine if the troponin levels change over time.

What is included in the Troponin I test?

Troponins are special proteins in skeletal and cardiac muscle fibres that control muscular contraction. Troponin levels are used to detect heart injury by measuring the quantity of cardiac-specific Troponin in the blood.

Even if just slightly elevated, a high troponin level may suggest heart injury. When a person has highly elevated troponin levels and, in particular, a spike and/or fall in the findings of a series of tests performed over several hours, the individual has likely had a heart attack or other cardiac injury.

Troponin levels in the blood can rise within 3 to 6 hours of a heart attack and stay high for 10 to 14 days. Moreover, raised Troponin levels in angina patients indicate worsening illness and a significant risk of heart failure. However, the Troponin I test should not be used as the sole method of diagnosing heart disease. Instead, it should be paired with a physical examination, an ECG, 2D Echo and other factors.

Procedure for Troponin I test

The procedure for performing the Troponin I test is absolutely simple.

Our technician will arrive at your doorstep to collect the sample.
Then, after cleaning the skin surface with antiseptic, a blood sample will be drawn by our technician from the vein in the forearm using a needle.
After the needle is positioned, a small amount of blood is collected into a test tube or vial. When the needle goes in or out, you may feel a slight sting. This normally takes under five minutes.
Then with the help of the latest technology and state-of-the-art machinery, the lab technician will evaluate the blood sample.
Once the analysis has been done, the test results will be made available on the MFine app.

How to prepare for the Troponin I test?

It is recommended that the patient notifies the practitioner of the following before the testing:

Your medical history, any previous injuries or heart conditions, and medications are currently being taken.
Your dietary regime and dietary restrictions that you follow like not eating dairy or following a strict vegan diet etc.

Based on this information, the practitioner may advise you on any dietary restrictions and drug usage that must be observed. These are essential to obtain accurate and proper results.

Note: On the day of testing, it is suggested that you wear comfortable clothes that allow easy access to your forearm.

Things to consider after the Troponin I test is complete

Once the test results become available, consult the doctor for further recommendations. Abnormal results require immediate attention, so contact your health practitioner as soon as your results come. Please don’t self-diagnose your health.

What types of conditions can the Troponin I test detect?

The Troponin I test aids in the detection and monitoring of heart injury. Troponin I is the preferred test for a suspected heart attack because it is more specific to heart damage and stays raised for longer.

Apart from a heart attack, elevated troponin levels can also help in the diagnosis of

Chronic kidney disease or kidney failure
Pulmonary embolism
Infection of the heart

How much does the Troponin I test cost?*

The cost of the test may vary from city to city. Though it certainly depends on the city, quality, and availability. However, the average cost of the test is between Rs. 500 and Rs. 2,000.

*Disclaimer: The value varies based on location, time, and your preferred lab partner.

How long does it take to get the results for the Troponin I test?

You can expect to get the results of the Troponin I test within 24 to 48 hours after the sample is collected. However, in certain cases, depending on the location, medical advice, and preferred lab partner, it may take longer.

What do abnormal Troponin I test results indicate?

Even a slight boost in troponin levels frequently indicates damage to the heart. Troponin levels that are extremely high indicate a heart attack. Within 6 hours of having a heart attack, most patients have elevated troponin levels. Almost everybody who has had a heart attack will have elevated levels after 12 hours.

Troponin levels may stay elevated for 1 to 2 weeks following a heart attack. Troponin levels may also be elevated as a result of:

Abnormally rapid heartbeat
High blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs (pulmonary hypertension)
A blood clot, fat, or tumour cell blockage of a lung artery (pulmonary embolism)
Heart failure with congestive edema
Spasm of the coronary arteries
Inflammation of the heart muscle caused by a virus (myocarditis)
Trauma to the heart, such as a car accident
Heart muscle deterioration (cardiomyopathy)
Chronic kidney disease

Troponin levels may also arise as a result of some medical treatments, such as:

Angioplasty/stenting of the heart
Defibrillation of the heart or electrical cardioversion (purposeful shocking of the heart by medical personnel to correct an abnormal heart rhythm)
Coronary artery bypass surgery
Heart radiofrequency ablation

Normal Levels and Range

Troponin-I levels in the body are generally less than 0.04 ng/mL.
Normally, your blood should have no detectable troponin or a very low level—below 0.04 nanograms per millilitre (ng/ml).
A troponin level between 0.04 ng/ml and 0.39 ng/ml frequently implies a cardiac issue.
A troponin level of more than 0.4 ng/ml indicates a possible heart attack.

Troponin-I levels that are abnormal are generally associated with pulmonary hypertension, angina, myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism, and congestive heart failure.

Troponin I levels that are abnormal are grounds for considerable worry. It is critical to speak with a cardiologist as soon as possible to begin the necessary treatment. Patients may be encouraged to take oral medications or undergo modest heart treatments such as angioplasty.

Disclaimer: Please consult with your doctor to interpret the test reports.

Is Troponin I a definitive test?

Troponin I is considered one of the best tests to diagnose a heart attack or cardiac injury. Troponin I tests are effective because they can detect heart damage even when only a trace of Troponin is present. The tests are so sensitive that the error rate is less than 10%.

Though you may require additional tests along with this, it is always advisable to visit the doctor to understand the problem correctly.

How to read the Troponin I report?

Normal Levels and Range

Troponin I levels should be less than 0.04 ng/mL.
Troponin concentrations over the Troponin normal range of 0.40 ng/mL may signify a cardiac injury. Please see a doctor at the earliest if your levels are elevated.
Troponin values ranging from 0.04-0.39 ng/mL may necessitate a series of Troponin tests. However, over 0.40 ng/mL is considerably outside the Troponin normal range and necessitates emergency medical attention.

Normal Range Of Troponin Levels

Range (ng/ML)	Results(Interpretation)
0- 0.04	Normal
0.04-0.39	Elevated
0.40-1	High
1-10	Very High
>10	Very High Risk

Why to book the Troponin I test?

A troponin test is usually requested when a person with a suspected heart attack arrives at the emergency room or the hospital. This is followed by a series of troponin tests over several hours.

A heart attack may be suspected when a person exhibits the signs and symptoms indicated below, and tests may be performed. It is important to note that not everyone will feel chest pain, and women are more prone than males to have unusual signs and symptoms.

Pain, discomfort, and/or pressure in the chest (most common)
Rapid heart rate, a missed beat
Breathing difficulties and/or shortness of breath
Fatigue
Vomiting and nausea
Sweating coldly
Lightheaded
Excessive tiredness
Other areas of pain include the back, arm, jaw, neck, and stomach.

A troponin test may be ordered in patients to

Detect the injury to the heart
Helps in the diagnosis of heart attack and rules out other conditions with similar signs and symptoms
Also, this test is performed in patients with stable angina when the symptoms worsen or when a person is at rest, but symptoms appear, or the treatment no longer alleviates symptoms.

These symptoms indicate that the angina is becoming unstable, increasing the likelihood of a heart attack or other significant heart disease in the near future. So getting a Troponin test at the right time can be very beneficial.

Troponin I test at home – how does it work?

The Troponin I test is just like any other blood test. A lab technician visits your home when you book your tests through the MFine app. The lab technician first cleans the arm and then inserts a syringe into a vein. The required amount of blood is then taken into a vial. The lab technician then removes the needle and places cotton wool or a bandage over the prick.

Are there any risks involved with Troponin I?

Having a blood test poses relatively no danger. You may experience some pain or bruising where the needle was inserted, but most symptoms will subside soon.

What can affect the results for Troponin I?

If this test is performed too soon after a heart attack, it may result in a false negative. Cardiac Troponin rises within a few hours of heart-cell death and can take many days to remove from the bloodstream. Therefore, your healthcare professional may need to measure it many times within a few hours of the onset of symptoms.

Other than a heart attack, cardiac enzyme levels might arise for various reasons. For example, sepsis, a form of blood infection, can result in high troponin levels. The same can be said for atrial fibrillation, a common cardiac rhythm issue. Other factors that may have an impact on your test results include:

Pulmonary blood clot
Heart failure, whether acute or chronic
Brain harm caused by amyloidosis
A cardiac contusion as a result of a chest wall injury
Cardioversion for atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter chemotherapy
End-stage kidney disease coronary angioplasty defibrillation for ventricular fibrillation or tachycardia
Open cardiac surgery for myocarditis or myopericarditis
Cardiomyopathy, radiofrequency catheter ablation of arrhythmias, rhabdomyolysis, and severe exercise are other cardiac disorders.
Valvular heart disease

Because other conditions might increase cardiac enzyme levels, your doctor will not use enzyme levels alone to identify a heart attack.

To confirm a diagnosis, they might utilise an electrocardiogram and symptoms.

What does the Troponin T test measure?

Troponin T test measures the level of troponin T to rule out heart damage or disease. Troponin T is a protein released from the damaged heart cells in the blood. The more damage present in the heart muscle, the more will be the amount of troponin T protein in the blood. Meaning, the amount of troponin is directly proportional to the extent of heart injury. If a person has chest pain or any other symptom related to a heart attack, the doctor will prescribe this test. It is used to detect and evaluate the cause of heart attack.

What Preparation is needed for the Troponin T-test?

What happens to your test sample?

The Troponin T test sample will be sent to your preferred lab in Chennai that you chose while booking the test.

What do abnormal results indicate?

If your Troponin level is very low or nil in your blood, you do not need to worry about heart-related diseases as you do not have any heart diseases. 0.04 ng/ml is the normal level of troponin in the blood. If the troponin level is higher, you may have some heart injury, and it is required to test your heart.

The abnormal results or the increase in the troponin level in the blood may be due to various causes. Some are – High blood pressure in lung arteries, Congestive heart failure, Abnormally fast heartbeat, Long–term kidney diseases, Blockage of a lung artery by a fat, tumour cells or blood clot (pulmonary embolism), Trauma that injuries the heart, such as by a car accident, Prolonged exercise (examples are triathlons or marathons), Inflammation of heart diseases usually due to myocarditis (virus), Cardiomyopathy (weakening of the heart muscle), Coronary artery spasm.

There also may be some medical procedures due to abnormal results – Radiofrequency ablation of the heart, Open heart surgery, Heart defibrillation or electrical cardioversion, and Cardiac angioplasty/stenting.
