Do serum enzyme elevations (SGOT, LDH, HS-LDH) following operative procedures differ from normal values and those seen in acute myocardial infarction?
This study evaluates the utility of serum enzyme levels (SGOT, LDH, HS-LDH) in distinguishing postoperative changes from acute myocardial infarction.
Duncan A. Killen (1968) studied this question.
