A condition in which the heart has lost the Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) ability to pump enough blood to the body’s tissue? As a result to CHF, the _____ may respond by kidneys causing the body to retain fluid (water) and salt. A common cause of CHF; a disease of the Coronary artery disease (CAD) arteries that supply blood and oxygen to the heart causes decreased blood flow to the heart muscles. The heart becomes starved for oxygen and nutrients if the arteries become blocked or severed narrowed. This disease is known as? A common cause of CHF include damage to the Cardiomyopathy heart muscle from causes other than artery blood flow problems such as from infections, alcohol or drug abuse is known as? are substances that are released onto the Cardiac Biomarkers blood when the heart is damaged or stressed. Measurements of cardiac biomarkers are used to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) help diagnose ___ ____ ____and ___ ___, and conditions associated with insufficient blood cardiac ischemia flow to the heart as well as CHF. These are specific proteins found in cardiac cTns muscles and are measured in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction. Three troponin subunits form a complex that Troponin T (the tropomyosin-binding regulate the interaction of actin and myosin and component) thus regulate cardiac contractions are? Troponin I (The inhibitory component) Troponin C (the calcium-binding component) Cardiac troponin __ and Cardiac troponin __ are Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) the two main types of troponin used as cardiac and biomarkers. Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) Trponins are localized primarily (94%-97%) in myofibrils the ____ with smaller cytoplasmic fraction. In general, what is the technique of choice for Immunoassay measuring cTns? The laboratory should perform biomarkers 1 hour 30 minutes testing with a maximum turnaround time (TAT) of how long? What term is defines as the time from Turnaround time (TAT) collection to the reporting of results to the provider? What type of blood specimen appears to be the Anticoagulated whole blood or plasma optimal specimen for rapid processing and testing?
