The Ionised Calcium Test measures the level of free (unbound) calcium in the blood, which is the biologically active form of calcium used by the body. Unlike total calcium, ionised calcium is not affected by protein levels, making it a more accurate indicator of calcium status.

Calcium plays a vital role in muscle contraction, nerve function, blood clotting, and bone health. Abnormal ionised calcium levels may indicate conditions such as parathyroid disorders, kidney disease, vitamin D imbalance, or critical illness.

The purpose of this test is to:

  • Measure active (ionised) calcium levels in the blood
  • Assess calcium metabolism accurately
  • Diagnose parathyroid and metabolic disorders
  • Monitor critically ill patients or calcium-related conditions

Tests Preparation :
