Study Notes
Cardiac Biomarkers Normal Range
- MB-Ck elevates within 3-12 hours of an event, peaks at 24 hours, and returns to normal within 2-3 days.
- Troponin I elevates within 3-12 hours, peaks at 24 hours, and returns to normal within 5-10 days.
- Troponin T elevates within 3-12 hours, peaks at 12-24 hours, and returns to normal within 5-14 days.
- AST (SGOT) elevates within a few hours (6-12 hours), peaks at 36 hours, and returns to normal after 5 days.
- Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) elevates within a few hours (6-12 hours), peaks at 3 days, and returns to normal after 1 week.
