The Clinical Validation of a Common Analytical Change Criteria for Cardiac Troponin for Ruling in an Acute Cardiovascular Outcome in Patients Presenting with Ischemic Chest Pain Symptoms

Serial cardiac troponin (cTn) testing on patients with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is primarily to identify those patients with evolving myocardial injury. With the improved analytical performance of the high-sensitivity cTn (hs-cTn) assays, different change criteria have be...
