Abstract
High sensitivity cardiac troponins must be used in first intention. H0/H3 algorithm is recommended in the diagnostic strategy. In total, 75% of emergency patients can be early discharged with the H0/H1 algorithm. Interpretation of troponin values requires taking into account the clinical context and electrocardiogram. The algorithm H0/H1 cannot be used for early presenters in ED after onset of chest pain. Further validation studies are needed before widespread application of H0/H1 algorithm.
