No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Overcrowding in the emergency department is an increasing problem in hospitals worldwide. Point-of-care Troponin (POC cTn) testing combined with a well investigated risk stratification tool (HEART-score) used in the ambulance may contribute to more rapidly diagnostics of ruling in or ruling out myocardial infarctions (MI) and subsequently reduce unnecessary hospital admissions, total admission time and costs. However, the applicability of the POC cTn and the HEART-score in the pre-hospital setting remains unclear. This study will evaluate this applicability.
