Using clinical assessment and an ECG on top of a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin test may add little in the way of prognostic benefit as compared with the assay alone, at least for predicting 30-day ...

PARIS — A single cardiac troponin measurement by high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) assay can safely and effectively rule out myocardial infarction (MI) at presentation, results from more ...

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 ...

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 preliminary research is suggesting a simple saliva test can detect the presence of a protein biomarker known to signal the occurrence of a heart attack in just 10 minutes. If this prototype test ...

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 ...
