BACKGROUND: Elevated levels of cardiac enzymes in the blood are an indicator of ongoing cardiac ischemia. Persistent tachycardia may lead to myocardial ischemia due to oxygen supply-demand mismatch.
OBJECTIVES: We sought to evaluate the probability of underlying coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with symptomatic supraventricular (SVT) or ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT) based on cardiac enzyme level fluctuation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Troponin I (TNI) levels were measured twice and coronary angiography was also performed in patients without a history of cardiovascular disease and symptomatic SVT or VT.
RESULTS: Of the 114 (group A: CAD (n = 40), group B: no CAD (n = 74)) patients eligible for the study, 34 patients in group A and 64 patients in group B had SVT, while 6 patients in group A and 10 patients in group B had VT. All patients with underlying CAD developed a significantly elevated TNI level compared to baseline, irrespective of arrhythmia type (2.02 ± 7.98 ng/ml vs. 5.64 ± 13.38, p = 0.031). In patients without CAD, TNI level was not significantly elevated compared to the baseline level, irrespective of arrhythmia type (0.34 ± 1.38 ng/ml vs. 0.48 ± 1.48 ng/ml, p = 0.158). Most patients with normal TNI levels (46 of 47 patients; 98 %) had SVT. CAD was present in 13 of 47 patients (27 %) with tachycardia, despite normal TNI levels.
CONCLUSIONS: Elevated TNI levels are not helpful to discriminate between SVT and VT. An increase in TNI level in repeated blood sampling can help identify patients with higher probability of underlying CAD. Patients with VT demonstrated higher increases in TNI levels, compared to patients with SVT.
