Study Notes

Enzymes Used in Myocardial Infarction Analysis

  • Creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and Troponin are the two most specific enzymes traditionally used to analyze an acute myocardial infarction.

Biomarkers of Myocardial Infarction

  • Troponin and Creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) are two biomarkers that are early indicators of a myocardial infarction (MI).

Cardiovascular Risk Factors

  • High blood pressure, High cholesterol, and Smoking are the three major cardiovascular risk factors.

Damage to Endothelial Lining

  • High blood pressure is linked to the development of atherosclerosis because it can damage the endothelial lining of arteries and promote thrombus formation.

Anatomy of the Heart

  • The Septum separates the right and left atria.
