cMyC is more abundant than Troponin and provides discriminatory power comparable to hs-cTnT/I for the diagnosis of AMI in all-comers, and identifies a greater proportion of patients with AMI in very early presenters.
A standout feature is cMyC’s ability to more effectively triage patients. This distinction is likely related to the documented greater abundance and more rapid release profile of cMyC. If used on a POCT platform, cMyC could significantly improve the early triage of patients with suspected AMI.
