VIDEO DESCRIPTION
Allan Jaffe, MD provides a robust look at potential clinical uses for High Sensitivity Troponin. The future for this assay is very exciting and may well provide clinician added tools in diagnosing and treating patients in areas such as COVID and other non-cardiac specific conditions.
This video program is accredited for 0.25 Hours of CME/CE Credit and is expected to take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity has been designed to enhance the awareness of the improved management of patients at risk of cardiac injury/death through the use of the newer high sensitivity troponin assay in the diagnosis and management of cardiac events.
EDUCATIONAL GOAL
The goal of this activity is to provide clinicians with the latest updates in the use of high-sensitivity Troponin in the diagnosis and management of cardiac events.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Recognize the rationale behind evaluating High Sensitivity Troponin assay use in the diagnosis of non-MI scenarios.
- Explain the ongoing research in High-Sensitivity Troponin utility in the surgical setting
