Q

Serum Biomarkers

A
  1. Troponin
  2. CK-MB
  3. BPN
17
Q

Troponin

A
  • Released after myocardial damage
  • The more troponin -> the more damage (normally undetectable if healthy)
  • MI related
18
Q

Predictor (serum risk assessment)

A
  • hs-CRP (high sensitivity C-reactive Protein)
  • Homocysteine
    Don’t forget to check HgbA1C!!
19
Q

Homocysteine

A

Amino acid result breakdown of dietary protein

  • When levels are elevated, blood clotting may increase and the vascular endothelium may be damaged
  • TREAT: with folic acid/B vitamin complex (supplements/diet!!!)
20
Q

C-reactive protein

A

Reflective of endothelial inflammation

  • TREATMENT: lower levels by giving aspirin, smoking cessation, exercise lipid-lowering agents, Omega-3,
  • ONLY PRESENT IF INFLAMMATION IS THERE!
21
Q

Serum Lipids

A
  1. Triglycerides (<150 mg/dl)
  2. HDL (high density) (40-60 mg/dl)
  3. LDL (low density) (<100)
  4. TC (total cholesterol) (<200)
22

26
Q

CPK-MB

A

Creatine phosphokinase-MB

  • A cardiac marker used to assist diagnoses of an acute myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, or myocarditis
  • Found in heart muscle
27
