Prediction of troponin I and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels in acute carbon monoxide poisoning using advanced electrocardiogram analysis, Alexandria, Egypt
The study aimed at assessing the diagnostic ability of advanced electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis to predict the levels of NT-proBNP and Troponin I. ECG and the blood NT-proBNP and Troponin I were taken from 50 acutely carbon monoxide poisoned patients and 21 control subjects matched with age and sex...

Summary: | The study aimed at assessing the diagnostic ability of advanced electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis to predict the levels of NT-proBNP and Troponin I. ECG and the blood NT-proBNP and Troponin I were taken from 50 acutely carbon monoxide poisoned patients and 21 control subjects matched with age and sex. The severity of the studied cases was classified into mild, moderate, and severe using clinical classification. ECG parameters (RR interval, corrected QT (QTc) interval, P wave dispersion (Pwd)), and cardiac biomarkers (NT-proBNP and Troponin I) were significantly higher in cases than in control (
