Abstract
Serum levels of glutamic oxalacetic transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, lactic dehydrogenase and aldolase were determined in 27 patients who received external D.C. shock for the treatment of various acute and chronic arrhythmias. In 16 of the patients a significant rise in one or more of the enzymes was noted. Analysis of the data suggests that skeletal muscle or myocardium may have been the source of the increased levels. None of the patients showed evidence of infarction or myocardial injury during the post-treatment observation period.
