A European Society of Cardiology (ESC)-recommended 0/1-hour algorithm using high-sensitivity cardiac troponin measurements safely and accurately triages patients with suspected NSTEMI in the emergency ...

In some U.S. emergency departments (EDs), the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 0/1-hour troponin algorithm has shown uniquely poor performance ruling out cardiac events in patients presenting with ...

“Both the high safety standard and the risk [that] missed ACS poses to patients and clinicians contribute to over-testing, which exposes patients to costs and iatrogenic harm while contributing to ED ...

Many patients presenting to the emergency department with a suspected acute MI could be sent home on the basis of just one measurement of cardiac troponin I using a high-sensitivity assay, suggest ...

August 13, 2012 (Basel, Switzerland) — Swiss researchers have published more details about what they say is a simple algorithm employing high-sensitivity (hs) cardiac troponin T that can safely rule ...

Measuring high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) at presentation and after 1 hour not only identifies chest pain patients in the emergency department (ED) who are having an acute myocardial ...

Chest pain and suspected myocardial infarction were the cause of about 5% of all emergency hospital admissions in 2017 to 2018. However, myocardial infarction will have occurred in only about 20% of ...

New methods of cardiac troponin measurement accurately characterize patients as they present to the emergency department. Decisions on admission or discharge within 1–2 h of initial assessment (rather ...
