• Critical for timely initiation of evidence based therapies, but still an unmet need in many patients
• Delayed “rule-in” morbidity + mortality
• Delayed “rule-out” time in ED + costs patient anxiety

APACE: hs-cTnT 1h-algorithm
Reichlin T, et al. Arch Intern Med 2012
Aim of TRAPID-AMI: to prospectively validate the hs-cTnT 1h-algorithm
491 Patients (56%)NPV 100%95% CI 99-100%
169 Patients (19%)PPV 76%95% CI 69-82%
212 Patients (24%)Prevalence of AMI 9%
12 sites on 3 continents
• TRAPID-AMI ≈ APACE
• Prospective diagnostic study in the ED
• Inclusion: acute chest pain suggestive of AMI
onset < 6h (<12h in APACE)
written informed consent
First blood draw <45min since presentation
• Exclusion: terminal kidney failure on dialysis
Trauma
DC or defibrillation prior to inclusion
CABG <1month or AMI <3 weeks
• Blinded measurement of hs-cTnT at 0h+1h
Methods II
• Final diagnosis: central adjudication by two independent cardiologists according to the universial definition of MI using all information including serial cTnI-ultra (hs-cTnT in APACE)
• Primary endpoint: NPV for AMI
• Secondary endpoints: PPV for AMI, ….
• Follow-up: 30d mortality
• Sample size calculation: based on APACE
761 patients in rule-out zone, 1233 patients overall

Results
0.1%
• ED patients vs general practitioner (pre-test probability)
• Observational diagnostic study. Physicians were blinded to the investigational hs-cTnT results and patients were not managed based on these results.
• May underestimate the true NPV of the hs-cTnT 1h-algo due to enrichment with early presenters
• Performance in patients on dialysis is unknown
Limitations
• The hs-cTnT 1h-algorithm performs well for early rule-out as well as rule-in of AMI.
• Effectiveness (% rule-out/in) and safety (NPV & 30d-mortality in rule-out, PPV in rule-in ≈ APACE.
• Clinical implication: Used in conjunction with all other clinical information including ECG, the hs-cTnT 1h-algorithm will be a safe and effective approach to substantially reduce time to diagnosis in ≈75% of acute chest pain patients.
