NCT ID NCT06463275

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study measured troponin I levels in 1355 healthy adults to determine normal ranges for a new rapid test called SpinChip hs-cTnI. Troponin is a protein released during a heart attack, and having accurate normal values helps doctors diagnose heart attacks more reliably. The test uses a small cartridge and analyzer to give quick results from a blood sample.

Active substance

SpinChip hs-cTnI test (a diagnostic test using a cartridge and analyzer to measure troponin I in blood)

What this could lead to

If successful, this test could help doctors diagnose heart attacks faster and more accurately using a simple blood sample.

What could go wrong

This study only established normal reference ranges in healthy people; it did not test the test's ability to diagnose heart attacks in real patients. Further studies are needed.
