Role of "Ischemia modified albumin", a new biochemical marker of myocardial ischaemia, in the early diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes.
BACKGROUND Diagnosis of cardiac ischaemia in patients attending emergency departments (ED) with symptoms of acute coronary syndromes is often difficult. Cardiac troponin (cTn) is sensitive and specific for the detection of myocardial damage but may not rise during reversible myocardial ischaemia. Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA) has recently been shown to be a sensitive and early biochemical mar...
متن کاملMirror, mirror on the wall: the quest for the earliest marker of myocardial ischaemia.
In patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), the diagnosis and immediate initiation of reperfusion therapy is based on the standard 12-lead ECG. Owing to the fact that cardiac markers appear in the blood a substantial time after the onset of symptoms, cardiac markers are neither helpful for early diagnosis of patients with STEMI nor should results be awaited before...

I schaemia modified albumin (IMA) is a recently developed biomarker of transient myocardial ischaemia. Circulating IMA is increased in patients with myocardial ischaemia, after percutaneous coronary intervention, 3 or in acute coronary syndromes. The test has recently been licensed by the US Food and Drug Administration for diagnostic use in suspected myocardial ischaemia. IMA is serum albumin ...

Background and Objectives: The aim of this study was to survey the relationship between the level of creatinine,cardiac troponins serum and the function of the left ventricle in patients with kidney insufficiency,without acute coronary syndrome. Materialsand Methods:The sample was150 patients with nondialysis chronic kidney disease without acute coronary syndrome, hospitalized at I...
متن کاملEffects of balloon occlusion during percutaneous coronary intervention on circulating Ischemia Modified Albumin and transmyocardial lactate extraction.
S tudies have shown that human albumin undergoes a considerable reduction in its capacity to bind exogenous cobalt (Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA); Ischemia Technologies, Denver, Colorado, USA), as measured by the albumin cobalt binding test, when exposed to an ischaemic insult. We have recently observed that plasma IMA levels increase soon after transient balloon inflation during percutaneous...
