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.
