Education & Resources Center

Laboratory excellence, propelling emergency department performance

The PATHFAST Analyzer helps accelerate urgent cardiac care decisions in the emergency department with reliable, lab-quality testing at the point of care.

With the PATHFAST Education & Resources Center, we provide materials to help clinicians identify urgent cardiac concerns sooner, accelerate diagnosis, and ultimately improve the patient experience.

Upcoming Webinar:

Clinical use of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin for early diagnosis of myocardial infarction and the potential impact of the US FDA regulatory approach

Presented by Luca Koechlin, MD

Join Polymedco on Thursday, March 27th at 1 PM EST to learn more about the clinical use of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) in early myocardial infarction diagnosis. Learn how hs-cTn assays differ in the US compared to outside of the US, understand the impact of FDA regulations on clinical applications, and explore the latest evidence on point-of-care hs-cTn assays in the webinar led by Dr Luca Koechlin, MD.

Optimizing Chest Pain Care: Implementing Rapid Point-of-Care Cardiovascular Diagnostic Testing into Your Workflow

Presented by Simon A. Mahler, MD, MS, FACEP

Presented at: Thursday, April 17, 2025 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

 

This webinar will discuss approaches to improve chest pain risk stratification using point-of-care diagnostics. Specifically, we will discuss high-sensitivity troponin, d-dimer, and natriuretic peptide biomarker testing and the advantages of point-of-care testing. This will include discussion of evidence-based algorithms that can be used to integrate these point-of-care biomarkers into the Emergency Department workflow.

Polymedco presents “Exploring challenges and opportunities in emergency care: The potential of POC cardiac assays with Dr Robert Christenson.” This Q&A focuses on the challenges faced in quickly assessing and ruling out cardiac events, and how point-of-care (POC) assays from the PATHFAST Analyzer can help transform emergency cardiac care.

Explore the potential of the first and only FDA-cleared POC hs-cTn assay with Dr Christenson.

The Clinical Evolution of NT-proBNP: From Diagnosis and Prognosis to Guiding Therapy

Presented by Christopher R. deFilippi, MD, FACC

Explore the crucial role of NT-proBNP in diagnosing and managing heart failure (HF). Learn about the implications of NT-proBNP levels in the context of renal disease, obesity, and other cardiovascular conditions, and how these levels guide treatment decisions, including the use of sacubitril-valsartan. This session aims to enhance understanding of NT-proBNP’s diagnostic value and its impact on optimizing patient care in heart failure management. This webinar will offer a great learning opportunity for healthcare professionals seeking to deepen their knowledge in managing HF diagnosis, prognostic, and risk assessment.
