Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. Proteins are a component of cardiac biomarkers containing cell structures that are released into the circulation when a myocardial injury occurs. They are essential in the diagnosis, risk assessment, and treatment of patients who have chest pain, are thought to have acute coronary syndrome, or are experiencing acute heart failure exacerbations. There are numerous biochemical cardiac markers, but this article summarizes the basic role of major biochemical cardiac markers, including cardiac natriuretic peptides, cardiac troponins, C-reactive protein (CRP), creatine kinase-MB, heart
