High-Sensitivity Troponin: Quality and Timing Make the Difference – Not Reimbursement

Starting in 2025, troponin tests of the "prior generation" will no longer be reimbursable. Discover high-sensitivity troponin solutions with Triage® and PATHFAST™ for rapid, precise, and future-proof heart attack diagnostics – ensuring maximum safety and efficiency.

With the high-sensitivity troponin solutions from Triage® and PATHFAST™, Axonlab offers you two hs-cTn options for precise, rapid, and reliable diagnostics, ensuring maximum safety and efficiency for your patients and your practice.

Why Triage® and PATHFAST™ are the optimal choice for high-sensitivity troponin.

1. Maximum Safety for Physicians and Patients

• With high-sensitivity technology, you can detect heart attacks earlier and more accurately, even at minimal troponin concentrations.
• Minimize the risk of misdiagnoses with systems recommended by ESC guidelines.

2. Time Savings Through Advanced Diagnostics

• Both systems support the 0h/1h algorithm, delivering fast results.
• With the first measurement, up to 61% of patients can be ruled out—reducing waiting times and streamlining workflows.

3. Future-Proof and Fully Reimbursed

• While older systems will no longer be reimbursable starting in 2025, Triage® and PATHFAST™ remain fully reimbursed and meet all the requirements of modern heart attack diagnostics.
•  

4. Reliable Quality in Emergencies

• Unlike sensitive systems, high-sensitivity systems like Triage® and PATHFAST™ provide reliable results within the first hours after symptom onset—crucial for emergency care.

Comparison of high-sensitivity vs. sensitive troponin

	High-Sensitivity Troponin (Triage® and PATHFAST™)	Sensitive Troponin (e.g., Afias)
Diagnostic Precision	Highest sensitivity, even in healthy individuals	Limited accuracy for early symptoms
Protocol	0h/1h algorithm (fast and precise)	3h rule (time-consuming, outdated)
ESC Guideline Compliance	Yes	No
Reimbursement from 2025	Yes	Initially still reimbursed

Conclusion: Quality and Timing Make the Difference

By choosing high-sensitivity troponin solutions from Triage® and PATHFAST™, you’re not only securing future-proof systems for your practice but also ensuring the best possible care for your patients. Axonlab offers both solutions in its portfolio, perfectly tailored to meet your individual needs.
