“Determinación de la sensibilidad y especificidad de troponina cardiaca TN T y CKMB en pacientes diabéticos como ayuda diagnóstica en el infarto agudo de miocardio”

Abstract

The study for the determination of the sensibility and Troponina's specificity TN T and Creatine kinase MB (CKMB) was realized in the Laboratory of the General Docente Ambato Hospital, which aim was to check which of the tests is more sensitive and specific for Acute myocardial infarction (IAM) in diabetic patients.

The type of research was analytical observational study, with a study of cases and controls since its objective was to test the hypothesis and point out which of the tests used has high sensitivity or specificity to assist in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction in diabetic patients. For the capture of sample, I check that the participants expire with all the criteria of incorporation and exclusion, since the type of samples it is probabilístico and the choice of the patients was with scientific base.

The information obtained by the determination of Troponina's tests TN T and CKMB I throw Quantitative results, the population of study belonged 250 patients with an age between 35 and 80 years of the emergency service of the General Docente Ambato Hospital, with his respective medical request for the determination of troponina TN T and CKMB.

One concluded that the sensibility for Troponina's test TN T was 48.5 % with a specificity of 48.2 % for the diabetic patients diagnosed with IAM, whereas the sensibility for the test CKMB was of 51.4 % with a specificity of 51.7 % for the diabetic patients diagnosed with IAM.
