Elevated levels indicate damage to either muscle or brain; possibly from a myocardial infarction (heart attack), muscle disease, or stroke.
Creatine Phosphate + ADP --> (Creatine Kinase) --> Creatine + ATP
treatment for creatine kinase
my creatine Kinase is 152.....is that bad and what should i do
No, fasting is not required for testing Creatine Kinase levels. However, certain activities such as vigorous exercise should be avoided before the test as they can temporarily elevate CK levels.
There are no risks to this test beyond the very slight risk of infection at the puncture site.
An increased level of creatine kinase in the blood suggests DM as a possible diagnosis
The tube for creatine kinase typically comes in a red or gold top tube. There is typically no additive required for creatine kinase testing as the serum or plasma is used directly for analysis.
no
Creatine kinase
No, a creatine kinase of 1610 is elevated. This single lab result does not tell you what exactly is wrong, however.
