What is Myoglobin Test
The myoglobin test is a blood test that measures the levels of myoglobin, a protein found in muscle cells, in the bloodstream. Elevated levels of myoglobin can indicate muscle damage or injury, such as in cases of heart attack or rhabdomyolysis.
During the test, a healthcare professional will draw a blood sample from a vein in your arm using a needle. The sample will then be sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Results are usually available within a day or two and are reported as a numerical value. Your doctor will interpret the results in the context of your medical history and other tests to determine the cause of any muscle damage or injury.
