Do cardiac enzymes remove dead tissue as a result of an infarction?
No, cardiac enzymes, such as CK, CKMB and troponin are proteins that help a cardiac cell function. When the cell is damaged, such as by a myocardial infarction, the cells die, and these proteins are liberated from the cell into the bloodstream where we can detect them and determine there has been cardiac cell death.
What vessels carry oxygen to myocardial cells?
The circulatory system and heart are vessels that carry oxygen to myocardial cells. They help send blood throughout the entire body each time a person's heart beats.
What happens if you have a sudden blockage of blood to the heart?
When blood supply to the heart is blocked what happens is a myocardial infarction which can result in death.
What blood tests can confirm a diagnosis of melioidosis?
Blood tests that can be used to confirm a diagnosis of melioidosis include culture of Burkholderia pseudomallei from blood, serological tests such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for specific antibodies, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect the bacteria's genetic material in the blood.
How can EKG identify a myocardial infarction?
An EKG tells us about how electricity flows through the cells of the heart. Any infarction of cardiac tissue causes changes in the way the electricity travels. An EKG can show us these changes and help us to even identify where the infarction is occurring. A 12 lead EKG must be done to truly identify any infarction. The 12 lead shows us 12 different views of the electricity as it moves from one lead to another. By comparing the views we get against what would normally be expected and comparing each lead to the others we can look for changes in the EKG pattern (ST elevation or depression is the most obvious, but many other changes exist).
How does anticoagulants help cardio vascular disease?
Cardio Vascular diseases occur mostly due to clotting of blood within the vascular system leading to blockages and eventually a heart attack (myocardial infaction). Anti-coagulants are chemicals which prevents clotting of blood.
What circulatory disorder could be diagnosed with an electrocardiogram?
An electrocardiogram (ECG) can help diagnose various circulatory disorders, with common examples including atrial fibrillation, heart block, and myocardial infarction (heart attack). The test records the heart's electrical activity, which can reveal abnormalities in heart rhythm or conduction that indicate underlying circulatory issues.
What happens to your heart if you take drugs?
This question isn't detailed enough. Taking drugs in the correct dosages help you, and can even make your heart better if that's what they are being taken for. But some drugs, if abused, can increase, or decrease your heart rate, and could either put you into cardiac arrest, or make your heart stop all together. It also causes palpitation and increases the blood pressure causing the heart to pump more blood faster and faster. Eventually the heart will get tired and the person might suffer a stroke or a heart attack also known as myocardial infarction.
Who would be able to count white blood cells?
White blood cells can be counted by a lab technician, usually a haematologist. When a blood sample is taken the number of white blood cells can be counted and if increased or decreased from the norm this will help in a diagnosis being made.
What test confirms the diagnosis of thyroid gland disorder?
There are various tests that can confirm the diagnosis of a thyroid gland disorder. Regarding blood tests, the most common is the TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) test. However, there are several other blood tests that can help determine the overall health the function of the thyroid gland.Related Article - An Overview: Understanding Thyroid Blood Tests
How is the myocardium perfused?
A myocardial perfusion scan assesses the flow of blood to the heart when it's stressed by exercise or medicine. It's performed through injecting thallium into a vein in the arm or hand before the scan.
Why is increased blood flow during diastole an advantage for myocardial tissue?
because the blood flow to the myocardial tissue was intercepted by a fleet of magical unicorns of pure destruction and i would very much reccomend seeing a doctor as soon as possible, i am very concerned about your issue with your myocardial tissue as in some cases it can lead to death or many years of paralysis, my second and only other suggestion is that you follow the yellow brick road and make new friends on the way to give you moral support and help you through your final days of your tragic , unicornish death and i am very very sad to announce that you may also have a condition called 'youareafairyitis'
