This case control cross sectional study was carried out in the department of biochemistry, Mymensingh medical college in collaboration with the outpatient department, family planning model clinic and antenatal obstetric ward of Mymensingh medical college hospital, Mymensingh during the period of July 2003 to June 2004. The aim of the study was to explore the status of serum calcium among pregnancies complicated by pre-eclampsia in Bangladesh as a means to monitor the possibility of management of these patients. A total of 82 subjects were selected and were grouped as Group I (32 healthy women with uncomplicated pregnancy as control subjects) and Group II (50 pregnant women with pre-eclampsia as cases). Serum calcium was estimated by colorimetric method from each sample. Statistical analysis was done by using SPSS windows package. Among the groups, mean±SD (Standard Deviation) of Group I and Group II serum calcium were 8.71±1.00 and 10.78±1.44 mg/dl respectively. By comparing Group I with Group II highly significant difference were found in case of serum calcium (P<0.001). It is evident from the study that serum calcium level significantly increases among pregnancies complicated by pre-eclampsia in Bangladesh.
