Hosts Mitsuaki Sawano, MD, and co-host Satoshi Shoji, MD, welcome Kenji Inoue, MD, to discuss the DROP-Asian ACS study—a multicenter trial evaluating the 0/1-hour algorithm for chest pain assessment across 12 hospitals in five Asian countries presented as a Late Breaking Clinical Trial at the ACC.25. Dr. Inoue shares key findings from this cluster-randomized trial of nearly 4,000 patients, highlighting the algorithm's practicality in Asia's diverse healthcare settings. Despite regional differences, the 0/1-hour approach—requiring only two high-sensitivity troponin measurements—proved effective and accessible, even in low-resource environments. He also reflects on presenting at ACC, the importance of early preparation, and the growth that comes from taking on complex international research. Dr. Inoue encourages young clinicians to embrace challenges and actively engage with global networks for clinical research development.
