RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Patients presenting with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) contribute to a high workload and overcrowding in the Emergency Department (ED). Accelerated diagnostic protocols for non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction have proved challenging to implement. One obstacle is the turnaround time for analyzing high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn). In the WESTCOR-POC study (Clinical Trials number NCT05354804) we aim to evaluate safety and efficiency of a 0/1 h hs-cTn algorithm utilizing a hs-cTnI point of care (POC) instrument in comparison to central laboratory hs-cTnT measurements. DESIGN: This is a prospective single-center randomized clinical trial aiming to include 1500 patients admitted to the ED with symptoms suggestive of ACS. Patients will receive standard investigations following the European Society of Cardiology 0/1h protocols for centralized hs-cTnT measurements or the intervention using a 0/1h POC hs-cTnI algorithm. Primary end-points are 1) Safety; death, myocardial infarction or acute revascularization within 30 days 2) Efficiency; length of stay in the ED, 3) Cost- effectiveness; total episode cost, 4) Patient satisfaction, 5) Patient symptom burden and 6) Patients quality of life. Secondary outcomes are 12-months death, myocardial infarction or acute revascularization, percentage discharged after 3 and 6 h, total length of hospital stay and all costs related to hospital contact within 12 months. CONCLUSION: Results from this study may facilitate implementation of POC hs-cTn testing assays and accelerated diagnostic protocols in EDs, and may serve as a valuable resource for guiding future investigations for the use of POC high sensitivity troponin assays in outpatient clinics and prehospital settings.
