Agenda

Acute Coronary Syndrome mortality remains high. There is a need for rapid, accurate and safe diagnosis specifically in the Emergency Department (ED) setting. The hs Tn Webinar aims to highlight the value of the high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) 0-hour/1-hour algorithm in effectively triaging patients presenting with suspected AMI to the ED to either rule-out or rule-in classifications.

Hear from Dr Chien-Chang Lee, an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at the National Taiwan University in Taiwan and Dr Cynthia Papendick, Emergency Physician, Emergency Department of Royal Adelaide Hospital in Australia on their experience in implementation and the new evidence (including latest ESC 2020 guidelines) on the use of hs-cTn 0h/1h algorithm in the ED.
