Biochemical Study of Cardiac Markers in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Dr. K. Venkateswarlu, Dr. A. Padma Vijayasree

Abstract :

Biochemical markers are the primary diagnostic test used to evaluate patients with inconclusive electrocardiograms for possible acute coronary syndrome. Measurements of cardiac enzymes allow a clear distinction between patients with and without myocardial infarction. For many years, creatine kinase (CK) and its isoenzyme MB (Muscle Brain) have been the markers of choice for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction. The scope of this study is to create a general awareness regarding the importance of Troponin T, cardiac biomarker in identifying the cardiovascular disease (CAD) and also in order to make a comparative analysis of the change of bio–chemical enzymes and other constituents in troponin positive myocardial infarction patients. Finally this study proved that the elevated troponin level above the normal range is the perfect biomarker for the diagnosis of acute MI.
