Abstract :

Magnesium is one of the important intracellular ion in human body. Its role in various physiological activity is well known. Therefore this present study is conducted to find the trend of serum magnesium level in patients of acute myocardial infarction. Serum magnesium was measured in 53 patients of acute MI on 1st, 4th, 10th and 14 th day after an attack of MI. Also, 53 healthy volunteers were taken for normal serum Mg levels. Statistical analysis was done using two way ANOVA and Bonferonis t test. There was highly significant fall in serum magnesium levels on day 1 but as days increases there is increase in serum magnesium with levels reaching the normal range on the 14th day.
