1 Identifying Patients Suitable for Discharge After a Single-Presentation High-Sensitivity Troponin Result: A Comparison of Five Established Risk Scores and Two High- Sensitivity Assays  Edward W. Carlton, MBChB, Ahmed Khattab, PhD, Kim Greaves, MD  Annals of Emergency Medicine  Volume 66, Issue 6, Pages e1 (December 2015) DOI: /j.annemergmed Copyright © 2015 American College of Emergency Physicians Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Summary of the clinical variables that make up each risk score and definitions of suitability for discharge according to each score and high-sensitivity troponin assay. m-Goldman, Modified Goldman; hs-cTnT, high-sensitivity troponin T; hs-cTnI, high-sensitivity troponin I; hs-cTn, high-sensitivity troponin. *Risk factors for coronary artery disease: Family history (<65 years) of premature coronary artery disease, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, or current smoker. †Patient reported coronary intervention or evidence from hospital record. ‡Patients with ST depression were not included within this study cohort. §30 ng/L For hs-cTnT was selected as the upper reference value because of manufacturer (Roche) recommendations. ‖78.6 ng/L Was chosen as the upper reference value for hs-cTnI because there were no manufacturer recommendations and validation studies of the HEART score used an upper cutoff of greater than or equal to 3 times the normal limit.17 Annals of Emergency Medicine  , e1DOI: ( /j.annemergmed ) Copyright © 2015 American College of Emergency Physicians Terms and Conditions
