====== Troponin ======

Adding [[copeptin]] to cardiac [[troponin]] (cTn) improved the [[sensitivity]] and [[negative predictive value]] for the diagnosis of non-ST elevation [[myocardial infarction]] (NSTEMI) compared to cTn alone. Thus, adding copeptin to cTn might help to screen NSTEMI early upon admission to the [[emergency department]] (ED)
