OP-040 Inverse Relationship of Eosinophil Percentage with Elevation of Cardiac Troponin may Indicate the Presence of Higher Thrombus Burden and Myocardial Injury




Aim


Eosinophils have being recently reported to have significant role in the coagulation, thrombus formation and thromboembolic related cardiovascular disease. Also it was reported that eosinophil levels reduced in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to unstable angina pectoris. In this study we aimed to evaluate the relationhip with the eosinophil percentage and the cardiac troponin levels on admissin.




Material-Method


Totally 49 patients who admitted with acute coronary syndrome and developed cardiac death and 29 patients who admitted acute coronary syndromes and survived after the event. We evaluated the relationship of eosinophil percentage and the cardiac troponin levels from the venous blood samples obtained on the admission.
