Abstract
⺠Healthy reference population ranging from 50 to 105 years old were enrolled. ⺠An age-related increase of hs-cTnT levels was observed in the reference population. ⺠Geriatric patients (>75 and <96 years old) suspected of having an AMI were enrolled. ⺠The hs-cTnT cut-off value in geriatric patients is different from that currently recommended. ⺠hs-cTnT cut-off value must be tailored to the age of patients with a suspected AMI.
