Title: Value of cardiac troponin T in early stage of Kawsaki disease
Abstract: Objective To study the value of cardiac troponin T(cTnT)in early stage of Kawasaki disease.Methods To detect cTnT、CPK and CK MB by ELISA method in 25 patients with Kawasaki disease at early stage;and compare cTnT with changes in coronary artery by PDE.Results Fourteen of 25 cases in cTnT,1 of 25 in CPK,1 of 25 in CK MB were positive;2 of 4 cases without significant coronary artery damage in PDE,were positive in cTnT,while changed in ECG.Conclusion The sensitivity of cTnT is higher than CPK and CK MB;cTnT can make up the shortage of PDE.
