What is a Total Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) test?
The creatinine kinase (CK) test is used to analyse the amount of creatine kinase in the blood. This CK is an enzyme that is found primarily in the brain, skeletal muscles, and heart. A CK test is usually conducted in the case of muscle weakness and muscle aches. It might also aid in diagnosing a heart attack. Also, the CK test may be advised if a person experiences dark-coloured urine for a longer duration of time.

What does it measure?
The Total Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) test: Analyses the levels of creatine kinase in the blood. Creatine kinase (CK) is an enzyme that is found in the brain, heart, skeletal muscle, and other tissues. In the case of muscle damage, higher amounts of CK are released into the bloodstream. In the blood, normally a small amount of CK is present, which comes from the skeletal muscles primarily. In the event of any damage to the muscles or any interference with the production of muscles, energy can lead to increased levels of CK. Also, these levels may rise if there is any change in the use of muscle energy. Examples of such conditions include strenuous exercises and myositis (inflammation of the muscles). Muscle diseases (myopathies), such as muscle dystrophy can also lead to an increase in the values of CK. However, significantly high levels of CK are observed in rhabdomyolysis, in which there is an extreme breakdown of skeletal muscle in the tissue.
