Test details
What is Heart Assure?
Heart Assure is a simple blood test which provides risk prediction for a possible cardiac event, even in apparently healthy and fit individuals. This test measures the level of heart specific protein - high sensitive Troponin I (hsTnI) in the blood.
It is a cardiac specific test with high sensitivity that measures even small levels of Troponin I in your blood which is released by your heart when there has been any injury in your heart.
Who should do Heart Assure?
- Everyone should undergo this test to check their heart health
- People who are obese, have high alcohol consumption, are active smokers, lead sedentary lifestyle, have unhealthy food habits
- Patients in the age group of 35 and above suffering from diabetes / hypertension
- Patients who are on therapy for some cardiac disease
Why should I do this test / What’s the need to do this test?
- Timely detection of underlying heart disease can save lives. Heart Assure will help in giving risk stratification of any cardiac event, even in seemly fit and healthy individual. In case, a patient gets intermediate to high risk levels in this test, he can take timely corrective measures to treat the disease and save his life.
- Evidence shows even fit and seemly healthy individual of any age can have a sudden heart event. Doing this test as a predictive marker, will reveal if you are at risk of having such an event, so you can take measures immediately.
How is (hsTnI) High Sensitive Troponin I different from Troponin I?
High Sensitive Troponin I (hsTnI) |
Troponin I (TnI) |

Is measured in patients showing symptoms of MI in an emergency setting to diagnose ongoing cardiac episode |
Holds potential in post-operative monitoring |
Low utility in post-operative monitoring |
