ClinConnect Summary

The PRESC1SE-MI study is looking at how to quickly and accurately evaluate patients who arrive at the emergency department with chest pain that might be a heart attack. It compares two methods for testing levels of a heart protein called troponin, which helps doctors understand if there has been damage to the heart. The first method tests troponin levels at the time of admission and again after three hours, while the newer method tests at admission and again after just one hour. This study will help determine if the faster method is just as safe and effective as the traditional one.

To participate in this trial, you need to be at least 18 years old and experiencing chest pain that isn’t the result of an injury, with a suspicion of a heart attack. However, people with severe kidney problems, who have had a cardiac arrest, or who are in a serious condition called cardiogenic shock cannot take part. If eligible, participants will have their blood tested for troponin levels at the specified times, allowing researchers to see how well the quicker method works in real-life situations. This could eventually lead to faster diagnoses and treatment for heart attacks in the emergency department.
