چکیده

Cardiac biomarkers such as CK-MB, troponins, and myoglobin provide the basis for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) through identifi cation of the necrosis of myocardial cells in the heart. For emergency physicians, or any clinician evaluating and treating patients presenting to the hospital with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), ischemic changes on the 12-lead electrocardiogram or elevation of a cardiac biomarker such as troponin identifi es patients at high risk for ischemic complications including AMI, recurrent ischemia, and death.
