About the Cardiac Marker Profile
The cardiac marker profile includes high-sensitivity troponin T, CK-MB, CPK and LDH, enzymes released when heart muscle is injured. It is used when chest pain or other symptoms suggest a heart attack, and to check for heart muscle damage.
Symptoms and situations where this test helps
- Chest pain, pressure or heaviness
- Pain spreading to the arm, jaw or back with sweating
- Sudden breathlessness or unexplained fainting
- Follow-up after cardiac events or procedures
Understanding your results
A rise in troponin shows heart muscle injury; timing matters, so repeat samples are often needed. CK-MB, CPK and LDH help show the timing and extent. Troponin can also rise in kidney disease or severe illness.
What your doctor may advise next
Chest pain is an emergency. Go to a hospital immediately. This profile is used by doctors alongside ECG and other tests.
