Objectives : The study objective was to validate a new high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-TnI)
assay in a clinical protocol for assessing patients who present to the emergency department …

Background High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays seem to improve the early
diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but it is unknown how to best use them in clinical …

Background: Perioperative myocardial injury (PMI) seems to be a contributor to mortality
after noncardiac surgery. Because the vast majority of PMIs are asymptomatic, PMI usually is …

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays have been used clinically by thousands of
physicians in many countries throughout the world since their clinical introduction 7 years …

Aim It is unknown whether cardiac troponin (cTn) I or cTnT is the preferred biomarker in the
early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction without ST segment elevation (NSTEMI). …

Background : The safety of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 0/1-h algorithm for
rapid rule-out and rule-in of non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) using …

Abstract Evaluation of quality of care is an integral part of modern healthcare, and has become
an indispensable tool for health authorities, the public, the press and patients. However, …

Background: We aimed to prospectively validate a novel 1-hour algorithm using high-sensitivity
cardiac troponin T measurement for early rule-out and rule-in of acute myocardial …

Background: The European Society of Cardiology recommends a 0/1-hour algorithm for
rapid rule-out and rule-in of non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction using high-…
