Highlight
This large, pragmatic international trial demonstrated that implementing the guideline-recommended 0/1-hour high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) pathway is as safe as the conventional 0/3-hour pathway for diagnosing myocardial infarction in the emergency department, as evidenced by similar 30-day outcomes. However, the 0/1-hour pathway did not significantly reduce emergency department length of stay compared to the 0/3-hour protocol.
