Summary

We aim to examine, whether hospitalization is associated with higher high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) serum concentrations in patients without a cardiac disease.

Detailed description

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) values will be obtained in hospitalized patients a) without a diagnosed or suspected cardiac disease, and b) with an acute medical condition that is not commonly associated with an increase of hs-cTnT concentrations. As a reference, a second sampling of blood for an analysis of the hs-cTnT serum concentration will be obtained in the same patients after discharge (60 days after hospitalization).

Conditions

• Non-cardiac Disease

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	Analysis of hs-cTnT serum concentration at hospitalization	Analysis of the hs-cTnT serum concentration in the blood drawn at the day of hospitalization
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST	Analysis of hs-cTnT serum concentration after discharge	Analysis of the hs-cTnT serum concentration in the blood drawn after discharge (60 days after hospitalization)
