Show notes: Raised troponin without chest pain: don’t panic and don’t dismiss. Learn how trend + context + ECG guide admit vs observe vs discharge.Episode 10 — Raised Troponin Without Chest Pain · Admit, Observe, or Discharge?
Troponin doesn’t diagnose NSTEMI — it detects myocardial injury. Your job is to explain the injury safely.
In this episode, we tackle a common dilemma: raised troponin without chest pain. We break down how senior clinicians use trend, context, and ECG to avoid two extremes: treating everyone as ACS, or dismissing the result as “just a leak”.
You’ll learn:
Why one troponin is a number, and two troponins are a direction
Contexts that commonly raise troponin (and still carry risk)
How to avoid overcalling ACS vs missing atypical or silent MI
A bounded-action framework for disposition: admit, observe, or discharge
How to document reasoning clearly under pressure
