Our latest episode of QuidelOrtho Science Bytes features Dr. Lindy Carlstrom, Global Medical Affairs Manager for Acute Care, unpacking how high-sensitivity troponin is reshaping early cardiac diagnosis, where seconds matter most.

From detecting heart injury earlier and reducing emergency department bottlenecks to improving equity in cardiac care with sex-specific cutoffs, this episode highlights how precision diagnostics are accelerating decision-making and improving patient outcomes. Dr. Carlstrom explains the power of serial testing, the importance of assay precision and why today’s emergency teams rely on high-sensitivity troponin to confidently rule in, or rule out, acute coronary events.

High sensitivity troponin is more than a test, it’s a critical link in a faster, safer, more informed cardiac care pathway. Tune in to learn how this powerful tool is helping clinicians deliver timely insight when it matters most.
