Serum Cardiac Markers in Patients of Acute Myocardial Infarction
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A clinical study on 100 cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) was done in Pathology Department, P.D.U. Medical College, Rajkot with emphasis on serological cardiac markers i.e., creatinine kinaseM & B chains (CK-MB), cardiac troponin-T (CTnT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was carried out between January2008 to December-2009. CK-MB and CTnT are the earliest serological markers to be detected in blood following AMI. Sensitivity of CTnT was more compared to other serological markers. Presence of CTnT was better diagnostic of AMI in vital period. CK-MB is more helpful in the diagnosis of reinfarction. For the diagnosis of AMI, serological markers studied are very much helpful in the vital period.

Assessment of Periodontal Parameters and Serum Markers in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in developed countries and is a disease that has many contributing factors. Periodontal disease is one of the factors contributing to the progression of the disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of periodontal disease on the incidence of acute myocardial infarction. Methods: In this case-control study, 60 su...
متن کاملRapid Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction
To improve the specificity of biochemical markers of myocardial infarction (MI) a method to measure cardiac troponin-I (CTn-I) was developed. CTn-I is a protein unique to cardiac muscle and is released after MI. Consecutive 150 patients admitted to the coronary care unit was studied. Value of CTn-I was determined in all samples. CTn-I concentration in the MI patients group was increased com...
متن کاملComparison of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A, troponin and creatine kinase-MB levels in acute coronary syndrome
Background: Early diagnosis and proper treatment of patient with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and ischemic heart disease are important in determining prognosis, preventing adverse effects, and may even save lives. In this study, the level of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) in ACS patients was compared with the control group, in addition to cardiac Troponin (cTn) and creatine kin...
متن کاملThe effect of oxygen inhalation on cardiac biomarkers in patients presenting with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infraction: A randomized clinical trial
Background: It is assumed giving oxygen to patients with acute myocardial infraction may increase the oxygenation of the ischemic tissue; however, the usefulness of oxygen in these patients has become a challenging topic. Thus, the present study aimed to determine the effect of oxygen inhalation on cardiac biomarkers in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Methods: This randomized cli...
متن کاملQT-Dispersion as a potential marker in prognosis of acute myocardial infarction
Introduction: QT dispersion in a 12 lead ECG represents the heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization. The prolongation of QT-interval dispersion increases the risk of coronary heart disease, ventricular arrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death in patients with myocardial infarction. We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of QT-dispersion in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Meth...
متن کاملPrediction of long-term cardiac events by 123I-MIBG imaging after acute myocardial infarction and reperfusion therapy
Objective(s): In heart failure, the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio of the delayed image and washout rate (WR) are well-known as a powerful cardiac event predictors. H/M ratio quantifies the accumulation rate of MIBG in the myocardium and WR quantifies reduction of meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) accumulation in the heart from the early planar image to the delayed pla...
