Basic lab tests, such as a complete blood count and basic metabolic panel, are frequently performed on patients presenting to an emergency department with syncope. However, these tests do not assist in predicting cardiac etiology.[10]Troponin, similarly, performs poorly as a diagnostic tool among ...
Although the exact mechanisms are still unknown, there is a link between the presence of cardiac troponins, BNP, or NT-pro BNP in blood and the presence and severity of right ventricular dysfunction resulting from PE. Thus, absence of cardiac troponin or natriuretic peptide elevation is ...
