Troponin is released when heart muscle is damaged. It's THE definitive test for diagnosing heart attack. Even slightly elevated levels are significant.

What High Troponin Means

ANY elevation of troponin is significant. Most common cause: heart attack (myocardial infarction). Other causes: heart failure, myocarditis (heart inflammation), pulmonary embolism, kidney disease (mild elevation).

What Low Troponin Means

Normal troponin effectively rules out heart attack in most cases (when tested 3-6 hours after symptom onset). This is reassuring.
