Clinical Utility of Troponin in Cardiovascular Disease Speaker: James (Jim) Aguanno, PhD, Senior Clinical Specialist Sponsor: Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics The diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (MI) poses a challenge for clinicians, particularly in the absence of clear ECG evidence. In 2012, a consensus conference of experts redefined MI on the basis of cardiac biomarkers, with cardiac troponin (ctn) proposed as the preferred test. These recommendations were published in an article entitled The Third Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction. This document reinforced previous recommendations that advocated the use of the troponin cutpoint of the 99th percentile of a normal population with a <10% CV at that level. In addition, to this cutpoint, the clinical interpretation and significance of elevated ctn are reviewed, including non ischemic causes suggestive of alternate pathologies. Describe the pathology involved in ctn release. Discuss how ctn is used to diagnose an AMI in a STEMI and NSTEMI patients using the most recent guidelines Explain the relevance of ctn elevations in disease states unrelated to overt cardiac ischemia #6 #16 2:15 3:15 #7 Cell Image Analysis: Move Away from the Microscope Speaker: Carl Trippiedi, Sr. Product Manager, Cell Image Analysis Sponsor: Sysmex America, Inc This session focuses on the technology and the Clinical and Operational benefits of Digital Cell Image analyzers in the clinical laboratory.
