This test measures the amount of creatine kinase (CK) in the blood. CK is a type of protein, known as an enzyme. It is mostly found in your skeletal muscles and heart, with lesser amounts in the brain.
The C-reactive protein (Quantitative) test measures the levels of C-reactive protein in blood to determine the presence of inflammation or infection and to monitor treatment.
A troponin test measures the level of troponin in your blood. Troponin is a type of protein found in the muscles of your heart. Troponin isn't normally found in the blood. When heart muscles become damaged, troponin is sent into the bloodstream. As heart damage increases, greater amounts of troponin are released in the blood.
The Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) test measures the level of an enzyme found in most cells of the body. Elevated levels in the blood may indicate cell damage or destruction and are used by doctors to help diagnose and monitor conditions such as heart disease, liver disease, or certain types of cancer.
This test measures the amount of an isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK) in blood. The body makes 3 forms of CK, including CK-MB. CK is found in the heart, muscles, and other organs.
The Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) test measures the level of a hormone secreted by the heart when there is increased pressure or stretching in the ventricles. This test is used to diagnose heart failure, assess its severity, and monitor treatment effectiveness. Elevated BNP levels often indicate that the heart is struggling to pump blood efficiently, while normal levels suggest a healthy heart. This test helps doctors make accurate treatment decisions and monitor the progression of the condition.
