Abstract :Objective: Hemogram, biochemistry, serum electrolyte, and inflammatory marker levels are altered in patients with acute myocardial infarction. When diagnosing and monitoring patients with acute myocardial infarction using cardiac-specific biomarkers, the levels of these markers should also be under control. We looked into the diagnostic and therapeutic value of hemogram, biochemistry, inflammatory markers, and electrolyte levels in acute myocardial infarction patients. Material and Method: It is a descriptive epidemiological study. Within the scope of the study, all patients aged 18 years and over and diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction in the Emergency Department and Cardiology Department of Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Faculty of Medicine Hospital between 01.01.2022 - 31.12.2022 were included retrospectively. Hemogram, biochemistry, serum electrolyte and inflammatory marker levels were investigated in acute myocardial infarction patients. Results: Leukocyte, neutrophil, procalcitonin and C-reactive protein values were significantly higher in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Although platelet/lymphocyte ratios were high, no significance was found. In patients with acute myocardial infarction, glucose values measured at the time of stress were found to be high (hyperglycaemia). When we analysed the serum lactate levels of patients with acute myocardial infarction, it was found to be significantly higher. Conclusion: In patients with acute myocardial infarction, hemogram, biochemistry, serum electrolyte and inflammatory marker levels are altered. The levels of these markers should also be controlled during the diagnosis and follow-up of acute myocardial infarction patients with cardiac specific biomarkers. We believe that hemogram, biochemistry, inflammatory markers and electrolyte levels may contribute to the prediction of early serious complications in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
