About this study

Official title: Multisite Precision Study for the SpinChip High-sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I (SpinChip Hs-cTnI) Test

During a heart attack, the protein troponin I is released from the heart muscle into the bloodstream. Measurements of cardiac troponin in blood are used as an aid in the diagnosis of heart attack. The SpinChip hs-cTnI test is a new high-sensitive test for measuring the amount of cardiac troponin I in the bloodstream as an aid in the diagnosis of heart attack.

The purpose of this study is to establish the precision of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test when using Li-Heparin plasma and whole blood samples in the hands of the intended user in the intended use setting at multiple sites.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac troponins are widely used as a biomarker to aid in the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). These structural proteins are essential in regulating contraction in cardiac muscle cells, and they are sensitive and specific biochemical markers of myocardial damage.

During a heart attack, cardiac muscle cells are injured and release the cardiac marker troponin I (cTnI) into the bloodstream. High-sensitive troponin tests may detect the increase of cardiac troponin in blood within hours after the symptoms of a heart attack has started.

The SpinChip high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) test is a new high-sensitive test for measuring troponin I in blood samples, and the analysis may be performed close to the patient (near-patient test). The results may be obtained within 10 minutes, compared to approximately 1 hour for normal laboratory analysis.

The SpinChip Platform consists of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test and the SpinChip Analyzer and may be used at the emergency department to evaluate patients presenting with symptoms of acute myocardial infarction (chest pain). The test can use blood from finger prick or venous blood samples, either as whole blood or separated into plasma.

This multisite prospective, observational, non-randomized validation study will establish the repeatability, within-laboratory precision and reproducibility of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test for Li-Heparin plasma and repeatability for Li-Heparin whole blood samples. Potential subjects will be identified based on clinical cardiac troponin levels obtained from medical records at the individual study site.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), run by SpinChip Diagnostics ASA at 3 sites in Norway.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Norway. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Precision of the SpinChip hs-cTnI test using Li-heparin plasma and whole blood samples (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 May 2025.
