Heart Attack Test
Researchers say they have a test that can tell if you're having a heart attack in just minutes, rather than the current test that takes hours. They discovered this by studying patients who actually benefit from a heart attack. www.sciencentral.com

Nice to see these new techniques developed. Although it’s probably a little early to tell 100% how good these tests are.

Thanks for calling it a technique, not a technology, which is overused by commercial world

This test will save many lives. Many people who are having a heart attack have symptoms other than chest pain, such as shoulder or back pain. With this simple test, doctors will be able to quickly determine which patients are actually having a heart attack. It’s a big step forward.

The test came from the technique of killing the patient for a while, so the excess heart muscle dies and this makes your heart work better.
It would be interesting to have heard the conversation when the new (“kill em, to make ‘em better”) technique was first suggested, as it doesn’t seem the logical thing to do.
The logical thing, it would seem with an over large heart is to cut away the excess muscle or give a new one.

This could end that agonizing month long wait while the hospital tests to see if you’re having a heart attack or not.

I thought I had a heart attack 2 years ago and I went straight to the hospital… They took my blood and checked for some chemical that is visible for, i think, 24 hours, IF you had a heart attack. They said I had some type of weird electrical malfunction that might never happen again. Then they billed me $4500. Then I had the heart attack, lol. j/k
