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.
