Clinical case 3. This 91-year-old female patient was one of the two “false positives” by hsTnI. The increase of TnI after 3 hours (bold red) was significant by both assays, but values above the diagnostic threshold (gender-specific 99th percentile) could be recorded only by hsTnI. Red line: threshold for hsTnI; blue line: threshold for TnI.
