Testimonials

“I have worked with the Triage Cardiac biomarkers point of care system since 2001. In my practice as an Emergency Physician in the UK, I have found the Triage system to be a safe, efficient and invaluable tool to manage low risk patients who present to emergency departments with undifferentiated chest pain. The ability to integrate the Triage system into an electronic patient record has enabled excellent audit and research opportunities and sets itself above most commercially available point of care systems. I have no hesitation in recommending its use.”

Dr. Beth Christian, Emergency Physician MB BS FACEM FCEM | London, UK

“In my department, we have been using Triage Cardiac marker panels along with clinical risk stratification to manage our patients with chest pain for over eight years. We are able to accurately identify patients with ACS who need urgent intervention or admission to hospital. In addition, we can identify those patients who can be safely discharged or be managed as outpatients. In that time, we have had no complaints or litigation in respect of such patients. Point of care biomarker testing has revolutionised our ability to care effectively for these patients.”

DR. L.G. Rocke, Consultant in Emergency Medicine | Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast
