Serum Calcium Price in Bangladesh

What is Serum Calcium?

The serum calcium test measures the amount of calcium in the blood, which is essential for bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling. Preparation typically involves fasting for 8-12 hours.

During the test, a blood sample is drawn from a vein. The results are interpreted by comparing calcium levels to the normal range; high or low levels can indicate conditions like kidney disease, osteoporosis, or hyperparathyroidism.

Risks include slight pain or bruising at the blood draw site. Certain factors, like medications or vitamin D levels, may affect the results.

What to expect & how to prepare

Serum Calcium is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Serum Calcium result rather than self-diagnosing.
