Our approach to such issues should be based on adherence to the four bioethical principles - autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and distributive justice - as well as the concept of proportionate care, and requires careful and effective communication with the whole ITU team, including the patient and their family.

This study aimed to assess the differential utility of three hs-cTn assays, targeting different troponin epitopes (proximal and/or central), to detect myocardial injury in a clinical model of acute myocardial injury by left-atrial ablation.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>First, pre- and post-procedural serum samples were prospectively collected from 158 patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation in a standardised setting. cTn-concentrations were measured using the high-sensitive Architect-cTnI-, Atellica-IM-cTnI-, and Elecsys-cTnT-assays. cTnI/T-concentrations and -ratios were compared, also to established AMI rule-in-thresholds.
