Excretion of myoglobin in urine after cardiac catheterisation.

Abstract: Myoglobin levels were assayed in each urine specimen voided during 12 hours before and 48 hours after routine cardiac catheterisation in 146 patients using an indirect haemagglutination method detecting concentrations in excess of 0.015 mg/ml. Myoglobinuria was found in only one patient before but in 39 patients after cardiac catheterisation (27%), either in the first (34 patients) or the second (5 patients) post-catheterisation urine sample. Once detected, myoglobin was present in all subsequent urine specime… Show more

“…A functional classification of myoglobinuria best begins with adivision into hereditary and sporadic forms because recognition of the hereditable enzyme abnormalities suggests modes of pathogenesis (Tables 2, 3). However, there is often more than Data from Adams et al (1978); Donald (1978); Kagen (1978; Knochel (1982); Malvano et al (1978) Markowitz andWobig (1977); Sarachak and Bernstein (1974) Stone etal.
