  2. Cardiac marker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiac_marker

    Troponins can also calculate infarct size but the peak must be measured in the 3rd day. After myocyte injury, troponin is released in 2–4 hours and persists for up to 7 days. Normal value are - Troponin I <0.3 ng/ml and Troponin T <0.2 ng/ml.

  3. Troponin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troponin

    A person who recently had a myocardial infarction has areas of damaged heart muscle and elevated cardiac troponin levels in the blood. [15] This can also occur in people with coronary vasospasm, a type of myocardial infarction involving severe constriction of the cardiac blood vessels. After a myocardial infarction troponins may remain high for ...

  4. Troponin I - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troponin_I

    Troponin I is not entirely specific for myocardial damage secondary to infarction. Other causes of raised troponin I include chronic kidney failure, heart failure, subarachnoid haemorrhage and pulmonary embolus. [9] [10] In veterinary medicine, increased cTnI has been noted from myocardial damage after ionophore toxicity in cattle. [11]

    Three key ones are troponin I, Troponin T, and CK-MB, which is a combination of creatine kinase enzymes M and B. d Both troponin I and T levels can be elevated in the blood within 2-4 hours after infarction, and usually peak around 48 hours, but stay elevated for 7-10 days.

  6. Diagnosis of myocardial infarction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagnosis_of_myocardial...

    The cardiac troponins T and I which are released within 4–6 hours of an attack of MI and remain elevated for up to 2 weeks, have nearly complete tissue specificity and are now the preferred markers for assessing myocardial damage. [14]

  7. Troponin T - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troponin_t

    In patients with stable coronary artery disease, the troponin T concentration has long been found to be significantly associated with the incidence of cardiovascular death and heart failure, but it was 2014 before it began to be accepted as a predictor of who would later suffer acute myocardial infarction (heart attack). [10] [11]

  8. Acute pericarditis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_pericarditis

    A complete blood count may show an elevated white count and a serum C-reactive protein may be elevated. Acute pericarditis is associated with a modest increase in serum creatine kinase MB (CK-MB). [ 5 ] and cardiac troponin I (cTnI), [ 6 ] [ 7 ] both of which are also markers for injury to the muscular layer of the heart.

  9. Myocardial infarction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_infarction

    There is a large crossover between the lifestyle and activity recommendations to prevent a myocardial infarction, and those that may be adopted as secondary prevention after an initial myocardial infarction, [72] because of shared risk factors and an aim to reduce atherosclerosis affecting heart vessels.
