Description
By incorporating i-STAT cTnI early in the patient experience, measurements of cardiac troponin I can improve diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) and aid in the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) with respect to their relative risk of mortality.
The i-STAT cTnI cartridge meets the ACC/AHA guideline of 60-minute turnaround time 98% of the time, compared with 53% for the central lab.1
- Provides lab-quality results,2 which can improve adoption of serial cardiac marker testing.
- The 2012 Third Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction recognizes troponin as the biomarker of choice.3
- Use of bedside testing in the ED has been shown to reduce:
- Time to anti-ischemic therapy by approximately 45 minutes4
- Time to discharge by 24 minutes1
- ED length of stay by 1.9 hours5
