No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to evaluate if the 1-hour rule-in/rule-out algorithm for a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) is safe and effective for use in the primary care where the patients have a lower pretest probability of an acute myocardial infarction (MI). During this study troponins will be collected at 0-, 1- and 4/6-hours, where absolute changes in the values will decide whether the patient need hospitalization or not.

Conditions

  • Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
  • Acute Coronary Syndrome
  • Angina, Unstable
  • NSTEMI - Non-ST Segment Elevation MI
