Evaluation of sex-specific cut-off values of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I and T assays in an emergency department setting - Results from the Linz Troponin (LITROP) study

Especially in women, reclassification rates were high, when using sex specific versus sex-neutral thresholds. Best matching cut-off values for hs-cTnT and hs-cTnI were markedly different to those currently in use. These “harmonised” cut-off values minimised discordant classifications between both assays.
