Abstract
This letter describes the derivation and internal validation of an assay-specific hs-cTnI-SPINCHIP 0/2h-algorithm for rapid triage of patients with suspected myocardial infarction (MI) in the emergency department (ED). The algorithm provided very high safety for rule-out, high accuracy for rule-in, and enabled definitive triage within 2 hours in approximately 80% of patients. These findings support the clinical potential of the novel point-of-care hs-cTnI-SPINCHIP assay for accelerated ED decision-making.
期刊介绍:
The American Heart Journal will consider for publication suitable articles on topics pertaining to the broad discipline of cardiovascular disease. Our goal is to provide the reader primary investigation, scholarly review, and opinion concerning the practice of cardiovascular medicine. We especially encourage submission of 3 types of reports that are not frequently seen in cardiovascular journals: negative clinical studies, reports on study designs, and studies involving the organization of medical care. The Journal does not accept individual case reports or original articles involving bench laboratory or animal research.
