February is National Heart Month, a time to raise awareness, wear red, and take steps for healthier hearts. But at South West London Pathology, we’re celebrating with a breakthrough that’s already changing patient care.
We became the first pathology network in the UK to introduce high-sensitivity troponin testing at the bedside in Kingston Hospital’s Emergency Department. For patients arriving with chest pain, this means answers in hours, not overnight. Faster rule-outs. Fewer admissions. Earlier reassurance.
As Haval Ozgun puts it: “When we combine expertise with smart diagnostics, patients are the real winners.”
This Heart Month, we’re proud to play our part, not just in raising awareness, but in speeding up the moments that matter.
