It is unlikely that oxygen supplementation in COPD patients with chronic respiratory failure reduce cardiac troponin level

BACKGROUND: Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a biomarker of myocardial injury frequently elevated in COPD patients, potentially because of hypoxemia. This non-randomised observational study investigates whether long-term oxygen treatment (LTOT) reduces the cTnT level. METHODS: We compared cTnT between C...
