Summary
This study tested a new blood test called SpinChip hs-cTnI that measures troponin, a protein released during a heart attack. Researchers wanted to see if this test could accurately diagnose heart attacks in 1,551 adults arriving at the emergency room with chest pain or other symptoms. The test was compared to a standard, proven method to check its accuracy and safety.
