The value of high-sensitivity troponin immunoassay in laboratory medicine

SelectScience® invited three experts to an exclusive roundtable discussion on the value of high-sensitivity troponin immunoassay in laboratory medicine. Watch this discussion to learn from their unique experiences in the implementation and management of high-sensitivity troponin assays. Plus, gain insights into important regulatory and CLIA perspectives. This video snippet was taken from the full session, the recording of which you can view here: The value of high-sensitivity troponin immunoassay in laboratory medicine.

Find out how long it can take in reality to implement a high-sensitivity troponin assay into clinical practice, understand how many stakeholders need to be included in the implementation process, and discover the important items in Sten Westgard's 'boring bin'.

Roundtable panel members:

  • Tracy Mangunlay, Laboratory Services Executive, Laboratory Administration, Adventist Health
  • Frank Peacock, Professor of Emergency Medicine and the Vice Chair for Research, Baylor College of Medicine
  • Sten Westgard, Director of Client Services and Technology, Westgard QC
  • Sonia Nicholas, Managing Editor and Clinical Lead, SelectScience (Moderator)

Clinical ChemistryBiochemistry (or clinical chemistry) involves the analysis of bodily fluids using chemical tests. Techniques used include HPLC, chromatography, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, immunochemical, electrophoresis, turbidometric / spectrophotometric assay, MRI and ISE analysis. Tests are often carried out on plasma or serum but urine (urinalysis) and fecal specimens are also processed.CLINICAL24CLINICAL24 is a global conversation, hosted by SelectScience for the medical laboratory profession and all those that support it.
