R70-R79: Abnormal findings on examination of blood, without diagnosis
R74: Abnormal serum enzyme levels
Abnormal serum enzyme levels refer to a group of conditions characterized by irregular amounts of enzymes in the blood. Enzymes are vital proteins needed in the body to aid in chemical reactions such as digestion. When enzyme levels are higher or lower than usual, it might indicate a potential problem. The abnormal levels can result from various factors including liver disease, heart attack, bone disease, or certain cancers. Symptoms often vary depending on the underlying cause, but common ones include fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, rapid heartbeat, and unusual weight loss. Progression of these conditions also depends on the root cause and the specific enzyme involved. The affected systems could be the heart, liver, bones, or even the entire body in the case of systemic diseases.
