What is Myoglobin ?
The Myoglobin test measures the level of myoglobin, a protein found in heart and skeletal muscle, in the bloodstream. Myoglobin plays a critical role in transporting oxygen to muscle tissues. When muscle cells are damaged due to injury, disease, or trauma, myoglobin is released into the bloodstream. Elevated levels can indicate muscle injury or a condition affecting the heart or skeletal muscles. Doctors order the Myoglobin test when there is suspicion of muscle damage or heart attack. Symptoms prompting this test include chest pain, difficulty breathing, or muscle pain and weakness. In emergency situations, it helps in early detection of heart damage, as myoglobin levels rise quickly within 1–3 hours after muscle injury.
