CALCIUM Ionized

Calcium is a mineral that is essential for numerous bodily activities, including bone strength, muscular function, nerve function, and blood coagulation. Ionized calcium is metabolically active free calcium floating in the circulation. Calcium deficiency can cause various problems in the body, including kidney illness, bone disease, and cancers in many organs.

Excess urine, thirst, irregular heart rhythm, memory loss, and bone pain are common symptoms of both hypercalcemias (too much calcium) and hypocalcemia (too little calcium) (lack of calcium).

Unusual calcium levels occur in people with a history of certain malignancies, respiratory diseases.

Why Done? 

A doctor may request this test for patients with chronic renal, bone, malabsorption, parathyroid, or liver disease on prolonged bed rest. In addition, a calcium test may be conducted to assess whether symptoms like muscle spasms, cramps, and tingling in the fingers are caused by low calcium levels or excessive calcium levels.

Procedure: 

You'll have blood extracted from an arm vein.
