Project Updates:
- All entities are live as of March 1, 2023
- Starting on June 2, 2022, all UPHS Troponin measurements will be performed with a high sensitivity assay.
Important change:
Collection will be a Green top tube (Lithium heparin, dark or light green). Troponin interpretations are changing significantly.
