A study team from the UW Department of Emergency Medicine is looking for healthy adults, age 60+ to participate in a research study about blood troponin levels in healthy adults. We are specifically seeking adults who do not have a history of stroke, heart attack, TIA, cancer, lung disease, autoimmune disease, or are a current user of tobacco products.  You are not eligible for this study if you take medicine to lower your cholesterol or are being treated for a heart condition. 

This study includes a single 20 minute visit where the following activities will occur: (1) measurement of vital signs (weight, height, blood pressure, pulse ox), (2) collection of a blood sample, and (3) use of a watch-like device for 3 minutes.

Adults who complete the study activities will receive a $40 gift card.

If you are interested in participating, please send an email to edrc@medicine.wisc.edu.
