Biochemical markers of myocardial necrosis, resulting from inadequate oxygen delivery to the cardiac muscle, are useful to aid in both the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with unstable myocardial ischemic syndrome. Describe the important markers for the knowledge of health professionals in this situation and explain why?
