About the test
Calcium, Ionized measures the active, free form of calcium in the blood that is not bound to proteins. It is the physiologically important form of calcium and is crucial for functions like muscle contraction, nerve signaling, and blood clotting. This test is useful when total calcium levels are abnormal or when protein levels (like albumin) may affect total calcium measurements.
