i-STAT in the ED | CHEST PAIN

ACCELERATE ANSWERS. ADVANCE CARE. FOR SUSPECTED ACS, YOUR ED NEEDS ANSWERs AT THE SPEED OF i-STAT

The need to improve cardiac care is more relevant than ever. In today’s ed, the focus must remain on fast, accurate assessment and disposition of patients. FOR SUSPECTED ACS, YOUR ED NEEDS ANSWERS AT THE SPEED OF i-STAT

COMPLEX

Evaluation Poses Diagnostic Challenges

Inclusive of many different complaints that may not be caused by acute myocardial infarction (AMI)

CRITICAL

Rapid Diagnosis of MI is Imperative

Time is muscle; delays can lead to loss of vital heart muscle and function.

THE PATH TO SUCCESS STARTS WITH i-STAT IN YOUR ED

i-STAT cTnI IN THE ED

Integrate i-STAT early in the patient-care pathway.

  • Lab-quality Troponin results at the patient's bedside2
  • Accelerate care decisions for time-sensitive patients

Hs-cTn IN THE HOSPITAL

Utilize hs-assays for admitted patients.3

  • Re-baseline on core laboratory cTn assay for admitted patients
  • When multiple platform testing is conducted, it is important to indicate the methodology used on the laboratory report as well as the assay-specific 99th percentile
THE VALUE OF POCT
Testimonial Testimonial Testimonial

“Having the test result come back in real time at point of care allows us to make immediate decisions… If I have a positive troponin at triage, I now have identified a patient as high risk and they’re going to go down the MI pathway.”

Professor of Emergency Medicine
