Comparisons of the Peak Troponin Level Between Patients With Abnormality and Those Without Abnormality Based on the Event-Triggered ECG Abnormality
| Event-Triggered ECG Abnormality | n (%) | Peak Troponin With Abnormality, ng/mL(mean ± SD) | Peak Troponin Without Abnormality, ng/mL(mean ± SD) | p Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rhythm: AF/flutter | 29 (26.9%) | 0.073 ± 0.1 | 0.681 ± 1.3 | 0.0430* |
| Rhythm: sinus tachycardia | 22 (20.4%) | 0.614 ± 1.4 | 0.681 ± 1.3 | 0.7121 |
| Rhythm: others | 11 (10.2%) | 0.157 ± 0.2 | 0.681 ± 1.3 | 0.1654 |
| LVH | 9 (8.3%) | 0.05 ± NA | 0.506 ± 1.1 | 0.4102 |
| AV block | 34 (31.5%) | 0.365 ± 0.7 | 0.556 ± 1.2 | 0.6647 |
| ST changes | 10 (9.3%) | 0.922 ± 1.9 | 0.433 ± 1 | 0.8219 |
Abbreviations: AF, atrial fibrillation; AV, atrioventricular; LVH, left ventricular hypertrophy; NA, not available owing to only 1 observation under the conditions; SD, standard deviation.
