Summary
This study tested a decision rule that combines a checklist (Marburg Heart Score) with a rapid blood test (high-sensitive troponin I) to help general practitioners decide if patients with new chest pain need hospital referral. About 946 adults with acute chest pain took part. The goal was to see if this approach could safely reduce unnecessary hospital visits while still catching serious heart problems.
