摘要
Objective: The objective is to verify the cardiac troponin I values in children less than I year of age without clinical cardiac dysfunction. Methods: The cardiac troponin I values were determined in 99 children less than I year of age, including term infants without diseases related to cardiac dysfunction using the specific kit Opus T Troponin I (cTn) (Dade Behring Inc. Newalk, DE 19714, USA). Results: All children have values of cardiac troponin I less than 0.1 ng/ml. Conclusion: We verified that the cardiac troponin I value is less than 0.1 ng/ml in children less than I year, including term infants without cardiac dysfunction, when analized by the kit Opus T Troponin I (cTn) test modules.
