Brief Summary
During a heart attack, the protein troponin I is released from the heart muscle into the bloodstream. Measurements of cardiac troponin in blood are used as an aid in the diagnosis of heart attack. The SpinChip hs-cTnI test is a new high-sensitive test for measuring the amount of cardiac troponin I in the bloodstream as an aid in the diagnosis of heart attack. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and safety of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test relative to a clinically validated hs-cTnI method.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) curve for cTnI concentrations measured at admission to the emergency department (ED)
Calculate and compare the area under the curve (AUC) for both SpinChip hs-cTnI and clinically validated hs-cTnI method using centrally adjudicated diagnosis of AMI
Day of admission
Secondary Outcomes (6)
AUROC for cTnI concentrations measured at 1, 2 and 3 hours after admission to the ED
Day of admission
Negative predictive value (NPV) at 0, 1, 2, and 3 hours after admission to the ED using the 99th percentile upper reference limit as clinical cut-off
Day of admission
Positive predictive value (PPV) at 0, 1, 2, and 3 hours after admission to the ED using the 99th percentile upper reference limit as clinical cut-off
Day of admission
Occurrence of MI and/or cardiovascular death (CV) within 30 days
30 days
Derivation and validation of rule-in/rule-out 0/1h and 0/2h algorithms
Day of admission
- +1 more secondary outcomes
Interventions
SpinChip Platform, consisting of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test (self-contained cartridge) and SpinChip Analyzer (instrument)
Eligibility Criteria
Subjects presenting to the emergency department with acute chest discomfort or other symptoms suggestive of AMI. This multicentre study will be conducted at up to 10 sites in the EU/EEA, Switzerland and UK.
You may qualify if:
- Able and willing to provide signed written informed consent
- Subjects ≥ 18 years old
- Subjects presenting at the ED with acute chest discomfort including "pain", "pressure", "tightness", "burning", or "stabbing" and/or other symptoms suggestive of AMI such as upper abdominal pain, left shoulder/arm pain, pain in the jaw, or pain between the scapulae.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects experiencing shock
- Self-reported pregnancy
- Previously included in the study (e.g., in case of a second presentation)
- Patient incapable of judgement, for example due to severe pain
