The Cardiac Troponin I Rapid Test is a fast and reliable way to discover elevated levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in whole blood, serum, or plasma samples. After the heart muscle is injured, cardiac troponin I is an extremely specific and sensitive biomarker that goes into the blood. This is most often associated to myocardial infarction (heart attack) and other abrupt injuries to the heart.

This rapid test is designed to assist doctors and nurses quickly discover and assess any acute cardiac events in hospitals and clinics. However, it can also be used at home as it does not require any special conditions or equipment. It just takes 10 to 15 minutes and is straightforward to do. You just need a little sample and a buffer solution to achieve clear, easy-to-read findings.

• The answer is negative if there is only one control line (C).
• If there are both control and test lines (C + T), the test is positive for elevated troponin I.

The test is a good tool to learn more about a patient's condition, but the results should always be looked at with clinical findings, the patient's history, ECG data, and lab tests that confirm the diagnosis. Finding higher troponin I levels early on can help doctors take action quickly, get better results, and give better treatment to patients who have symptoms that make them think they might have an acute coronary syndrome.

This test was made by ACRO Biotech Inc., a US firm that is known for creating high-quality and new testing products.
