Abstract

Objective To observe the effect of cardiac troponin I(cTnI),myoglobin(Myo) and creatine kinase MB(CK MB) for the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods The serum sample was measured to detect the indexes of cTnI,Myo and CK MB levels in 35 patients with AMI, 31 patients with UA and 20 the normal subjects. Result The sensitivity of cTnI was higher than that of Myo and CK MB,and their positive rates were 66%,40%,31% respectively(P 0.05,respectively). Conclusion cTnI is more sensitive and specific in the early diagnosis of AMI and has significant value of diagnosis.
