A European Society of Cardiology (ESC)-recommended 0/1-hour algorithm using high-sensitivity cardiac troponin measurements safely and accurately triages patients with suspected NSTEMI in the emergency ...

Myocardial infarction is the major cause of death worldwide. With effective treatment within our grasp, accurate and rapid diagnosis is of major medical and economic importance. With the development ...

BARCELONA, Spain—The 0/1-hour algorithm for ruling in or ruling out NSTEMI in patients presenting with acute chest pain on the basis of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T or I concentrations performs ...

HAMBURG, GERMANY and BRISTOL, UK — High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) assays used with low cutoff values, performed within the first hour after presentation, safely and effectively ruled ...

An ST-segment depression, transient ST-elevation, or new T-wave inversion in 2 contiguous leads, plus positive serum troponin in a patient with chest pain or anginal equivalent, is diagnostic for ...

Relying on the sex-specific 99th percentile upper reference limit of cardiac troponin may incorrectly suggest myocardial infarction (MI) in older adults with suspected heart attacks, though no ...

How are Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients currently identified? ACS is currently identified through the use of ECGs pre-hospital and ...

BARCELONA, SPAIN — The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 0/1-hour algorithm to "rule in" or "rule out" non-ST-segment-elevation MI (NSTEMI) in patients presenting to the emergency department with ...

In a recent article published in the journal Nature Medicine, researchers discuss a novel clinical decision support system based on machine learning (ML) models to predict an individual’s probability ...
