The article reviews the possibilities of biochemical markers in coincidence with the assessment of prognosis in acute coronary syndromes and in the revealing of effectivity of their therapy. The current options of clinical biochemistry in many cases allow to supplement, confirm, or exclude the results of modern physical and other clinical examination methods and in this way to contribute to the accuracy of the diagnostic process, and enable to comment the prognosis and the risk measure of the patient. A significant progress has been achieved in the assessment of effectivity in thrombolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction, where especially the series assessment of myoglobin levels or specific troponin cardiomarkers can facilitate the process of physician's decision as to the assessment of the subsequent procedure in the treatment of patients. The assessment of levels of both specific and partly less specific cardiomarkers becomes one of the criteria of the decision in coincidence with ischaemic episodes in the peri and postoperative periods (the diagnosis of peri-operative myocardial infarction). Specific troponin cardiomarkers acquire an extraordinary significance in the prediction of the measure of risk in patients with unstable angina pectoris where already one single assessment of the level of these markers is sufficient for hospitalization of the patient and thus enables to change the physician's strategy of further therapy.
