Estimation of the size of myocardial infarct and its clinical application.
CK-MB activity was estimated in 16 patients and infarct size was calculated on that basis using our own computer programme. The infarct size was confronted with ejection fraction calculated in haemodynamic studies (p = 0.01). In the next step the ejection fraction was determined basing exclusively on changes of CK-MB activity. Significant changes between the value of fractions defined in these ways appear in the case when myocardial necrosis simultaneously involves the right ventricle.
