Study summary

Cardiac amyloidosis is a progressive infiltrative cardiomyopathy, most commonly related to transthyretin (ATTR) misfolding. Although considered rare, emerging data suggest higher prevalence in specific regions, including the Black Sea area of Turkey. Early recognition improves outcomes. ATTRACT-52 is a prospective, observational, non-interventional screening study in primary care (family medicine centers) across Ordu province. Adults ≥65 years with cardiac or musculoskeletal "red flags" will be screened; those meeting high-suspicion criteria will undergo NT-proBNP/BNP testing at the primary care level to aid risk stratification prior to referral for confirmatory diagnostics.
