Background:
Rhabdomyolysis
is
an
acute
condition
of
muscle
cell
damage
and
subsequent
release
of
intracellular
components
into
the
systemic
circulation.
Potentially,
muscle
repair
mechanisms
in
these
patients
could
lead
to
expression
of
cardiac
troponins
in non-heart-cells and release during repair phase, hence leading to false suspicion of acute myocardial infarction.
Therefore, this study aims to evaluate cardiac troponin levels in patients with rhabdomyolysis to see whether levels
are influences by non-cardiac disease.
