Collection: Cardiac Marker

Cardiac markers are biochemical substances released into the blood when the heart muscle is damaged. They are widely used for the early diagnosis, risk assessment, and monitoring of cardiac events, especially myocardial infarction (heart attack). Common cardiac markers include Troponin I & T (most specific and sensitive), CK-MB, Myoglobin, and BNP/NT-proBNP. Measurement of cardiac markers helps clinicians confirm cardiac injury, guide treatment decisions, and evaluate patient prognosis in emergency and critical care settings.
