Glossary of Terms

Hypocalcemia
Low blood calcium level. Premature infants, infants of diabetic mothers and growth restricted infants are all more prone to low blood calcium levels than full-term infants.
This is Children's Glossary of Medical Terms - and much more. You'll find the basic definitions and, for many medical subjects, a larger medical context written by an experienced Children's pediatrician. All the definitions are in an easy-to-print format.
