Cardiac Marker Testing Market - Forecast(2021 - 2026)
Cardiac Marker Testing Market size is estimated at $3.8 billion in 2020, projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period 2021-2026. Cardiac markers include enzymes, hormones, and proteins of various forms, such as cardiac troponins, creatine kinase (CK), albumin modified by ischemia (IMA), and myoglobin. The measurement of these biomarkers helps to diagnose different heart syndromes, such as acute coronary syndrome, cardiac ischemia, and blocked blood flow to the heart. In hemolytic anaemia, creatine kinase, stroke , pancreatitis , ischemic cardiomyopathy, and a number of other diseases, LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) is an unspecific marker for myocardial/ infarction and its concentration may be elevated. Cardiac markers are used to treat and stratify risk in patients with chest pain and presumed coronary acute syndrome (ACS). Generally, physicians perform multiple cardiac marker tests over several hours to keep ...
