Clinical Importance of Cardiac Troponin Release and Cardiac Abnormalities in Patients With Supratentorial Cerebral Hemorrhages

The cTnT elevations in survivors of acute ICH are frequent but without confirmatory ECG changes that suggest mild myocardial injury. One-month mortality is not influenced by such cTnT elevations. In addition, ECG abnormalities are common but likely benign in patients with supratentorial ICH who survive the initial insult.
