All patients with unclear chest pain, potentially of cardiac origin, should be tested with the TROPT sensitive rapid assay to eliminate the risk of patients “slipping through” the traditional cardiac diagnostic procedure. All patients with suspicion of myocardial infarction should also be tested, including the so-called “late presenters” of a myocardial infarction.
