| Guide for use: | CODE 8888 if test for CK was not done for this hospital presentation. Where possible, several CK measures should be recorded and their associated date and time. At a minimum, an initial, peak and late value should be recorded. When only one CK level is recorded, this should be the peak level. | ||||||||||||
| Comments: | Elevation of CK isoenzyme is an indication of damage to muscle. There are three different CK isoenzyme sub-forms: - CK-MM (skeletal muscle) - CK-MB (cardiac muscle) - CK-BB (brain tissue) | ||||||||||||
