Why can darling cardiac muscle enzyme be high?

summary

Generally speaking, if the myocardial enzyme is elevated, we will naturally associate with myocardial injury and myocarditis. In fact, these problems may not affect the elevation of myocardial enzyme, but myocardial enzyme has certain diagnostic value for myocardial infarction to a certain extent. Why can darling cardiac muscle enzyme be high? Let's talk about it

Why can darling cardiac muscle enzyme be high?

Because the normal range of myocardial enzyme detection in children is referring to adult standard, if there is no corresponding symptoms and signs, there is no clinical significance for the slight increase of some indexes in myocardial enzyme detection.

Many medical institutions have made statistical analysis on the situation of high myocardial enzymes in children, and there are clear conclusions in domestic and foreign literature: the myocardial enzymes in children are generally higher than those in adults, and the younger the age, the higher the myocardial enzymes.

Compared with the reference value of adult myocardial zymogram, the percentage of increase in the upper limit of each enzyme in children is about 15% for CK (creatine kinase) and AST (aspartate aminotransferase), 30% for CK-MB (creatine kinase isoenzyme), and 90% for LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and HBDH (hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase).

matters needing attention

If the child's mental appetite is good, there is no need for parents to take the child for repeated examination because some values of myocardial enzymes in the physical examination report are slightly increased. This not only increases the financial burden of parents, but also brings unnecessary mental pressure to children and parents.
