The hs-cTnT 0/2-hour algorithm ruled out most patients. With NPV of <99% for 30-day cardiac death or MI, the hs-cTnT 0/2-hour algorithm, many emergency physicians may not consider it safe to use for U.S. ED patients. When combined with a low-risk HEAR score, NPV was >99% for 30-day cardiac death or MI at the cost of reduced efficacy.
