What is Creatine Kinase-MB (CK-MB)?
Creatine Kinase-MB is measured as part of a cardiac markers panel. Your CK-MB is normal — this fraction is more specific to heart muscle.
What does a high Creatine Kinase-MB mean?
Your CK-MB is elevated, which can indicate heart-muscle injury. It's interpreted alongside troponin and your symptoms.
If markedly elevated: Your CK-MB is markedly elevated — please seek prompt cardiac evaluation.
