Abstract

There are an estimated 8 to 10 million emergency room visits each year for the evaluation and treatment of acute coronary syndrome; i.e. ischemic coronary artery disease; with potential consequential damage to the heart muscle itself (infarction). The standard diagnostic evaluation has routinely included a series of tests looking for evidence of concurrent tissue injury happening at the time of evaluation.
