The troponin test either confirms or rules out a heart attack. However, not all elevated troponin levels are due to a heart attack, sometimes sepsis, chronic kidney failure, blood clots in the lung, or congestive heart failure can cause high levels.

If you have any symptoms of a heart attack, you might have to do the troponin test. These symptoms include:

• Nausea
• Breathing issues
• Vomiting
• Fatigue
• Chest pain
• Sweating
• Pain in the arms or jaw

You cannot prepare for a troponin test. This test is done to detect a heart attack and as heart attacks are unpredictable, no preparations can be made.

During the Troponin Test

Non-emergency troponin tests are offered by PharmEasy Labs, and can be booked using the website or the mobile app. A phlebotomist collects the blood sample from your house itself, maintaining hygiene and following safety protocols. The blood collection process is systematic - a vein finder tool detects the vein to use, the area is cleaned with ethanol, and blood is drawn using a sterilised needle. The process will be complete in 5 to 10 minutes.

As this is a qualitative test, there are no specific ranges. The results only show positive or negative results, indicating if Troponin I is present or not in blood.

The Troponin rapid test is either positive or negative. A confirmed positive Troponin I Rapid Test indicates the presence of troponin I in the blood. The presence of troponin confirms damage to heart muscles due to heart attacks. A negative Troponin I Rapid Test indicates the absence of troponin I in the blood.

Your doctor may want to investigate further by prescribing other tests like ECG, creatine kinase, 2D echo, complete blood count, lactate dehydrogenase, renal function tests and vitamin B12 assays to find the cause of acute coronary syndrome or heart attack.
