Background: Prognostic value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) assays have been assessed in selected populations in different studies and in registries of members of the general population with low cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of hs-cTnT in an asymptomatic very-high cardiovascular risk Spanish population.

Methods: From a previous prospective cohort of the TUSARC (troponina T UltraSensible en pacientes Asintomáticos de alto Riesgo Cardiovascular) registry, follow-up was conducted in 602 patients (93.

Introduction And Objectives: High-sensitivity troponin T assays (Hs-TnT) have been carried out in selected populations in clinical trials and in registries of the general population with low cardiovascular risk (CVR). The aim of this study was to determine the proportion of individuals with detectable Hs-TnT and the proportion of individuals with elevated Hs-TnT in a Spanish population of asymptomatic individuals with very high CVR, as well as the parameters associated with Hs-TnT elevation.

Methods: The study included 690 patients.
