Dynamic high-sensitivity troponin elevations in atrial fibrillation patients might not be associated with significant coronary artery disease

BACKGROUND: Since the introduction of high-sensitivity troponin assays a greater proportion of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients present with dynamic troponin elevations. We hypothesize that significant coronary artery disease (CAD) causes relative ischemia in the setting of a rapid heart rate resul...
