Biological Variation and Reference Change Value of High-Sensitivity Troponin T in Healthy Individuals during Short and Intermediate Follow-up Periods

Abstract

RCVs appear attractive for interpreting hsTnT results. The short-term biological variation of hsTnT is low but becomes somewhat more important at intermediate sampling intervals. Knowledge of this variation is important for interpreting results from patients in whom cTnT values increase from low concentrations.
