Cardiac Enzymes Test Package | Lahalak Platform
A vital diagnostic test for cardiac symptoms, measuring enzyme levels that rise during heart muscle damage, accelerating life-saving treatment decisions.
Scientific name: Comprehensive Cardiac Enzymes Package
A specialized cardiac biochemistry laboratory package is primarily used to diagnose acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) and assess the extent of damage. It includes measurements of total creatine kinase (CK), myocardial isoform (CK-MB), troponin I (a highly specific and sensitive marker of cardiac injury), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Th...

Medical Service Information
Conditions & Notices
- Fasting is not required: these tests can be performed at any time, as they are emergency and are not greatly affected by eating.
- • Timing of the sample: extremely critical. The time of symptom onset and the time of each sample collection must be accurately recorded to monitor temporal changes.
- Notify the technician of any recent strenuous physical activity (such as intense sports), muscle injury, intramuscular injection, or recent surgery, as these may raise total CK levels and affect interpretation.
- This is an emergency diagnostic package: it is requested and interpreted in an urgent clinical context, usually in an emergency department or hospital.
