Question
Is a high level of myocardial enzymes, 17 points, serious? If so, what diseases might it lead to?
Answer
The special enzymes contained in the myocardial cells of the heart become dissolved into the blood when myocardial cells necrotize and lyse during a myocardial infarction or recurrence of acute unstable angina, causing an abnormal drop. The drop in myocardial enzymes signifies that the recurrence of this heart disease is extremely dangerous. Not only does it indicate a certain degree of damage to the myocardial cells, but it also increases the likelihood of many major adverse cardiovascular complications, such as another myocardial infarction or sudden cardiac death, although it may not necessarily drop at the early stage of onset.
