Rupture causes an inflammatory process that leukocytes which acts as a marker of inflammation increases. Heart muscle damage that occurs also resulted in levels of troponin I as one of the markers of increased cardiac examination. Based on that research aims to determine the correlation between the levels of troponin I and the number of leukocytes in patients with suspected AMI.This research method is analytical observation with a data sample of 100 patients with suspected AMI diagnosis by doctors as well as examine the levels of troponin I and the number of leukocytes in dr. Abdulmadjid Chasbullah Bekasi. The correlation between the levels of troponin I and leukocyte counts were analyzed using Spearman’s test. Data studied consisted of 52 people (52%) men and 48 (48%) of women. By age group, age range 46-65 years become the largest age group into patients with suspected AMI is 55 people (55%). Obtained 34 (34%) of patients with suspected AMI who had higher levels of troponin I and normal leukocyte count, and 39 (39%) of patients with suspected AMI who had troponin I levels and elevated leukocyte count. On Spearman’s test seen the correlation between levels of troponin I with the total of leukocytes in patients with suspected AMI (p = 0.000 and r = 0.50). This shows an increase in troponin I, which runs parallel with the increase in the total of leukocytes. Suggested for further research to see the difference increased levels of troponin I and the total of leukocytes between 3-5 hours and 14-18 hours after myocardial injury}, number={1}, journal={Asian Journal of Applied Sciences}, author={Prasetyorini, Tri and Noviyanti, Rizka and Permata Kasih, Putu Puja and Lestari, Diah}, year={2019}, month={Mar.} }
