ST deviation and troponin are indicators of risk in unstable angina/non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction with related but distinct pathophysiology. We hypothesized that a combination of the two would offer complementary information regarding the benefit of an invasive strategy.
Combination of quantitative ST deviation and troponin elevation provides independent prognostic and therapeutic information in unstable angina and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
