The Accelerated Chest Pain Risk Evaluation (ACRE) project is a statewide project supported by the Healthcare Improvement Unit. The ACRE project aims to facilitate implementation of the best evidence for the safe and efficient evaluation of patients presenting to emergency department (EDs) with possible cardiac chest pain. The project utilises clinical redesign methodology to support adoption of accelerated diagnostic protocols (ADPs) that are evidence-based, safe, and patient focused.
