Safety and feasibility of triage and rapid discharge of patients with chest pain from emergency room: A pragmatic, randomized noninferiority control trial of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 0 to 1 hour pathway vs conventional 0 to 3 hour accelerated diagnostic protocol
Study context
- Population
- Patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) with chest pain
- Planned comparison
- ESC 0-1-hour pathway vs 0-3-hour pathway
- Primary endpoint
- Safety of the ESC 0 to 1-hour protocol
Methodological detailsprotocol, pragmatic, non-inferiority, nested controlled study of POCT vs laboratory testing, Secondary aim: feasibility of bedside POCT high-sensitivity troponin (results in 15 minutes) vs laboratory testing
- Protocol
- Pragmatic
- Non-inferiority
- Nested controlled study of POCT vs laboratory testing
- Secondary aim: feasibility of bedside POCT high-sensitivity troponin (results in 15 minutes) vs laboratory testing
