What is the normal range for Myoglobin?

The standard teaching reference range for Myoglobin is 25-72 ng/mL in conventional units, or 25-72 µg/L in SI units. This value is measured in serum.

Source: Adult reference values compiled from Pagana & Pagana, Mosby's Diagnostic and Laboratory Test Reference, and Fischbach & Dunning, A Manual of Laboratory and Diagnostic Tests. Reference ranges vary by laboratory, method, age, sex, and population - always use the range printed on the actual result.

Nursing considerations

  • An early but non-specific marker; a negative myoglobin helps rule out early MI.
