Fibrinogen has been identified as a major independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Myocardial infarction is cardiomyocyte death as result of a prolonged ischemia. The aim of this study was to determine fibrinogen level in Sudanese patients with myocardial infarction.
A case control study was conducted in AL-Shaab Hospital and Sudan heart center at Khartoum state, Sudan. A total of 100 study participants were enrolled in the study; 50 were myocardial infarction patients and 50 were apparently healthy individuals as control. The blood Samples were collected in 3.2 % trisodium citrate and Fibrinogen level was measured using ready kits principle. The data were analysed by statistical package of social sciences version 21.
The study revealed that fibrinogen level was higher in Myocardial infarction (MI) patients compared with normal individuals. There is a significant strong positive correlation between fibrinogen and Troponin-1 Level at the 0.05 level.
