Brief summary

Examine the analytical and clinical performance of Atellica IM TnIH assay for the diagnosis and rule out of acute myocardial injury and myocardial infarction in patients presenting to the emergency department in whom serial cTnI measurements are obtained on clinical indication.

Detailed description

Background: Studies addressing the clinical performance of the Siemens Healthineers High-Sensitivity Troponin I assay (TnIH) on the Atellica IM analyzer for the diagnosis and rule out of acute myocardial injury and myocardial infarction in consecutive patients presenting to a United States (US) emergency department are lacking. Study objective: Examine the analytical and clinical performance of Atellica IM TnIH assay for the diagnosis and rule out of acute myocardial injury and myocardial infarction in patients presenting to the emergency department in whom serial cTnI measurements are obtained on clinical indication. Hypothesis: The Atellica IM TnIH assay will offer an excellent diagnostic performance for acute myocardial injury and acute myocardial infarction, as well as expedite the risk stratification of patients for early discharge from the emergency department.

Interventions

Fresh serum or lithium heparin plasma samples will be measured with the Atellica IM TnIH assay (Siemens Heatlhineers).
