What is cardiac distress?
Cardiac distress is the same thing as a myocardial infarction, or heart attack.
What is the medical term meaning death of heart muscle tissue?
It is can be called necrocardiomyopathy, cardiac myonecrosis , myocardial infarction, or simply a heart attack.
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.
How would myocardial infarction affect cardiac output?
A myocardial infarction is a heart attack; during this, the heart's beat effectively stops and the heart is no longer pumping blood in any useable amount. Therefore, a myocardial infarction causes cardiac output to drop significantly and possibly drop to zero depending on the severity.
What is the purpose of cardiac marker tests?
Cardiac marker tests identify blood chemicals associated with myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack.
What has the author Shafie Fazel written?
Shafie Fazel has written: 'Cardiac repair and not regeneration after myocardial infarction'
Why do cardiac enzymes increase during a myocardial infarction?
cardiac enzymes encrease during myocardial infarction because its need decreases with death of portion of cardiac muscle. it is due to the inflammatory response of the body.
When did Volker Canaris die?
Volker Canaris died on May 6, 2012, in Meerbusch, Germany of cardiac infarction.
What are the complications of chest pain of a cardiac nature?
chest pain with cardiac nature could be a sign of heart attack.myocardial infarction,angina, heart failure,ischemic heart disease
What is the blood test performed to determine cardiac damage in an acute myocardial infarction is?
The blood test performed to determine cardiac damage in an acute myocardial infarction is called a cardiac enzyme test. This test measures levels of specific enzymes released into the bloodstream when heart muscle cells are damaged during a heart attack. The most commonly measured enzymes are troponin and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB).
Decreased blood flow to cardiac muscle that only injures the tissue creates a condition known as what?
Myocardial infarction is the decreased blood flow to cardiac muscle that only injures the tissue.
What are the risks of a stress test?
There is a very slight risk of myocardial infarction (a heart attack) from the exercise, as well as cardiac arrhythmia (irregular heart beats), angina, or cardiac arrest (about one in 100,000).
