For those other labs using Troponin T in the US--When is your lab planning on making the switch to the high sensitivity assay? Anyone else make the transition yet? How did it go?
 
Hopefully in June. It's been challenging to get everyone's buy-in. Responses so far:

Cardiology: Wow, neat!
Hospitalists: Huh??
ED: Huh??
IT Dept: DERP!?!

How did your switch over go? Which algorithm are your clinicians using?
 
We got postponed a month due to......***drum roll***....the IT team. We'll be using the Heart score and 2 hr rule out algorithm. PM for additional detail.
