Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the HeartBeam ECG System for detection of acute coronary syndrome. The study will enroll adults who come to the emergency department with chest pain or other symptoms suggestive of ACS. Participants will take the HeartBeam ECG recording within minutes of standard 12-lead ECG.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Sensitivity and specificity of the HeartBeam ECG for detection of ACS
Sensitivity and specificity of the HeartBeam ECG System for detection of ACS, reported as point estimates with 95% confidence intervals, adjudicated against the gold-standard diagnosis.
1 day - acute recording from ED
Other Outcomes (1)
Descriptive comparison of diagnostic performance between HeartBeam 3-lead and 12-lead ECG
1 day - acute recording from ED
Study Arms (1)
Patients presenting to the ED with symptoms suggestive of ACS
Adults presenting to the emergency department with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are enrolled, and study recordings are obtained. HeartBeam ECG recordings are for research purposes only and will not be used for clinical decision-making. Participants undergo routine ED cardiac evaluation. Final ACS status for the study is determined independently by an adjudication team based on the totality of available clinical data.
Interventions
HeartBeam 3-dimensional 3-lead ECG recording is obtained within 10 minutes of the standard 12-lead ECG in the ED, with optional paired recordings obtained if patient is admitted, at discharge and subsequent follow-ups. Recordings are for research purposes only and are not used for clinical management.
Eligibility Criteria
Hospital ED
You may qualify if:
- Male or female subjects 18 years of age and older.
- All-comers to the hospital ED with the symptoms of chest pain and an ECG taken on admission are considered for ACS evaluation.
- Able and willing to sign ICF.
You may not qualify if:
- Open chest wounds or recent (\<30 days) surgery of the chest or abdomen.
- Clinical conditions that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would compromise the patient's safety or ability to complete the protocol.
