Myocardial infarct and angina - Angelfire

CPK-MB levels rise 3 to 6 hours after a myocardial infarction (heart attack) occurs. If there is no further myocardial damage, the level peaks at 12 to 24-hours and returns to normal 12 to 48 hours after infarction (tissue death). CPK-MB levels do not usually rise with chest pain caused by angina, pulmonary embolism, or congestive heart failure. ................
