Lead Sponsor:

Jena University Hospital

Conditions:

Cardiac Valve Disease

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to clarify whether the perioperative release of the cardiac biomarkers troponin I, troponin T and CK-MB consistently correlate with visualizable myocardial damage, and to what ...

Detailed Description

In the course of a myocardial infarction, the death of cardiomyocytes leads to the release of specific cardiac biomarkers (CK-MB, troponin I and T). Since there is a general risk of perioperative infa...
