Relevant cardiac biochemical markers in acute coronary syndromes

D.S.Sheriff, Mohammed Saad Ambarek

Acute coronary syndromes remain the leading cause ofmortality and represent an enormous cost to the health care system. The evaluation of myocardial damage in relation to cardiac operation, from a clinical and a research perspective, is of great importance; particularly for the evaluation of different cardioprotective strategies. Cardiac biochemicalmarkers play an important role in helping physiciansmake the diagnosis and for risk stratification of patients. Currently, amongst many cardiac markers, cardiac troponin I seems to be the most cardiac-specific for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. This article is focused on the application of biochemicalmarkers for clinical purpose and comparison of their usages in the diagnosis of acutemyocardial infarction.
