Introduction: Higher levels of troponins >10 folds of upper normal limits (UNL) are considered as high-risk patients on coronary angiography sufferers having high levels of troponin-I (>10 folds upper limit normal level) had extra three-vessel coronary artery disease involvement. Objectives: To determine the frequency of degree of cardiovascular disease with Troponin-I level >10 folds ULN in NSTEMI patients at tertiary care hospital. Methodology: It is a cross-sectional study comprising of a total 800 patients recruited from the Department of Cardiology, National Institute of Coronary Disease, Karachi Pakistan based on Exclusion/Inclusion criteria. Results: There are 678 male as well as 122 female patients. The mean troponin-I level was 15.00±6.82 ng/ml. Single vessel disease found in 25.25% cases, two vessel diseases were observed in 37.75% cases, and three vessel diseases were observed in 20% cases. 83% were found with extent of CAD findings on angiography. There have been 678 male and also 122 female patients. The mean troponin-I level was 15.00±6.82 ng/ml. Single vessel disease found in 25.25% cases, two vessel diseases were observed in 37.75% cases, and three vessel diseases were observed in 20% cases. 83% were found with extent of CAD findings on angiography. Conclusion: The higher troponin level found significantly associated with extent of CAD and three vessel disease. To understand the cardiovascular troponin condition of the sufferer as soon as feasible is crucial. Keywords: Extent of Coronary Artery Disease, NSTEMI, Troponin-I Level >10 Folds ULN

This prospective observational study describes the rates of nosocomial infections (NI), the sites of infection, the pathogens involved, their antibiogram and the risk factors at a tertiary care hospital in northern India. In 62 of the 182 enrolled patients 95 episodes of NI were recorded (incidence rate 28.6/1000 person days): pneumonia (77%); urinary tract infection (24%) and blood stream infection (24%). All isolates of Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas and Klebsiella and 83.3% of Escherichia coli were resistant to the third generation cephalosporins. An increased duration of the time spent in intensive care units and days of intervention were associated with incident NI.
