Additional Information

This test helps determine the amount of calcium in your blood. Low levels indicate a calcium deficiency (hypocalcemia), while high levels suggest hypercalcemia. Calcium is crucial for muscle function, bone development, blood clotting, and maintaining a normal heart rhythm. Conditions like malnutrition, pancreatitis, and hypoparathyroidism can cause calcium deficiency. Understanding calcium levels aids in diagnosing and managing various health issues.
