Cardiac Injury Profile-Maxi

Myocardial infarction is a cardiac condition, where there is temporary or permanent cessation of the blood supply to the heart muscles. This is also referred to as a heart attack. There are various predisposing factors to cardiac disorders like age, hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, family history etc. If a heart attack occurs, there are various blood markers that confirm the diagnosis and indicate the severity of the condition. A Cardiac Injury Profile- Maxi is a comprehensive panel that includes tests to measure the acute cardiac injury or the extent of damage to the heart muscle in case of a heart attack. These parameters are known as cardiac markers.

Heart failure, which weak or damaged heart muscles can cause, is the failure of the heart to pump blood to the body's organs adequately. Additionally, one of the main causes of cardiac disorders is the obstruction of the heart's arteries brought on by lipid increases, particularly cholesterol.

There is frequently a lag between the start of heart harm and the emergence of particular blood proteins. To reduce the risk of a heart attack, the testing might be performed sequentially.

A myocardial infarction is a heart disorder in which the blood supply to the cardiac muscles is temporarily or permanently cut off. This also goes by the name "heart attack." Several factors may predispose an individual to heart problems. Some of these include,

• Age.
• Hypertension.
• Diabetes.
• Cholesterol.
• Family history of cardiac problems.

Several blood indicators can be used to diagnose and assess the severity of a heart attack. A Profile of Cardiac Injury Maxi is a comprehensive panel that comprises tests to gauge the severity of heart attack-related heart muscle damage or acute cardiac injury. These measurements are referred to as cardiac indicators.
