Myoglobin
Assessing to diagnose acute myocardial infarction and help appropriate treatment
Measurement of myoglobin provides an early index of damage to the myocardium, such as occurs in myocardial infarction (MI) or reinfarction. Increased levels, which indicate cardiac muscle injury or death, occur in about 3 hours. Two negative results from consecutive Myoglobin tests eliminate the MI from consideration.
