What is the serum myoglobin test

       Everyone attaches great importance to health. Today, the editor will explain to you what the serum myoglobin test is used to check.

       The determination of serum myoglobin is mainly used to check whether the body has acute heart disease and other muscle injury diseases.

       Myoglobin is a kind of oxygen-containing binding protein, which mainly exists in the heart muscle and skeletal muscle of the human body and can play a role in transporting and storing oxygen. When the heart muscle and skeletal muscle are damaged, myoglobin enters the blood circulation from the cardiac muscle cells, resulting in the rise of myoglobin. The concentration of myoglobin can be tested by blood sampling test. If the value increases, it will indicate the phenomenon of myocardial injury or skeletal muscle injury. Especially when the patient has myocardial infarction, the release of myoglobin is relatively early. The patient can find the phenomenon of myoglobin value increase in the early blood test, so this kind of test method can be used for the screening of myocardial infarction, It can also be used to check whether the body has acute heart disease and other muscle injury diseases.

       Once patients find any discomfort, they must go to the hospital to avoid delay in treatment. Pay attention to diet, rest, stay up late, exercise excessively, and develop good habits.
