KEY TAKEAWAYS

- Although there are strong recommendations, the adoption of hs-cTn assays are slow, due to logistic reasons.
- The Malaysian consensus recognizes the importance of high-sensitivity troponin for the triage of chest pain patients in the emergency setting specifically in a resource limited hospital.
