Abstract

Essential laboratory parameters for the evaluation of patients presenting to the emergency department with acute chest discomfort or dyspnoea. AMI, acute myocardial infarction; HF, heart failure; cTn, cardiac troponin; NP, natriuretic peptides; AI, artificial intelligence; ED, emergency department; POC, point-of-care; hs-cTn, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin.

Laboratory work-up for patients presenting with angina or dyspnoea
