Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Frequent serum sampling of CK-MB and total CK levels was carried out in 100 patients during and up to 48 hours following aortocoronary bypass surgery. Using an ion exchange chromatography method for CK-MB determination, significantly higher serum CK-MB levels (peak 46.1 +/- 5.2 cf. 31.3 +/- 2.2 u/L), but not total CK levels were present 6 to 16 hours postoperatively in those with new Q waves in the ECG. Serum levels of CK-MB in those patients with uncomplicated surgery were defined. New post-operative Q waves were seen in only one half of cases with frankly abnormal CK-MB curves and seriously underestimated the incidence of perioperative infarction. Peak levels of CK-MB in patients with new Q waves occurred within 16 hours of surgery suggesting that infarction is usually an intraoperative or early post-operative event.
