How a new wrist-worn device could detect a heart attack

Scientists have developed a wrist-worn device that could revolutionise treating heart attacks by speeding up diagnosis – without the need to draw blood. A recent study, published in European Heart Journal – Digital Health, has shown this device can detect 90 per cent of heart attacks within five minutes. If larger studies confirm these early findings, this revolutionary device for detecting troponin could prove useful for detecting heart attacks in GP surgeries, or for emergency services who first attend to a patient with chest pain. This new wrist-worn device could speed up the diagnosis and treatment of patients with chest pain.
