Prognostic Value Of Cardiac Troponin I During Acute Exacerbation Of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Abstract

Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) significantly impact patient outcomes and healthcare costs. Recent studies have shown interest in cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as a potential prognostic marker in AECOPD. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of cTnI during AECOPD
