Summary

Patients with chest pain may have postponed or missed diagnosis of acute coronary events due to relatively late detection of troponin elevation. The study will investigate a new diagnostic method for early detection of even minimal troponin elevation in patients admitted with chest pain.

Detailed description

Patients with chest pain may have postponed or missed diagnosis of acute coronary events due to relatively late detection of troponin elevation. The study will investigate a new diagnostic method for early detection of even minimal troponin elevation in patients admitted with chest pain. A new diagnostic method will be applicated in the recent studies.

Conditions

• Chest Pain

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Blood testing in a newly described method	To exploit detection strategy termed "Magnetic Modulation Biosensing", or MMB) to develop a novel, low-cost platform that can detect biomarkers, such as proteins and specific DNA sequences, rapidly and directly from real samples at very low concentrations.
