CONCEPT:

  • Myocardial infarction is a serious medical emergency that occurs due to the blockage of one of the arteries which are supplying blood to the heart.
  • A myocardial infarction occurs when there is cell death, this can be estimated by measuring by a blood test for biomarkers.
  • Commonly used blood tests include troponin and less often creatine kinase MB.

 

EXPLANATION:

  • Creatine kinase (CK), formerly known as creatine phosphokinase, is an intracellular enzyme present in the greatest amount in skeletal muscle, myocardium, and brain; a smaller amount occurs in visceral tissues. 
  • Following the onset of symptoms of Myocardial infarction CK and CK-MB increase in the serum within 3-6 hours.
