Summary : We examined ionized magnesium concentration by blood analysis in patients with hypertonia arterialis, ischemic heart diseases, both of them and in a control group. Slighty lower mean serum ionized magnesium concentration was found in the study group hypertonia arterialis when compared to the control group. In patients both group “B” with coronary artery diseases and group “C” with hypertonia arterialis + ischemic heart diseases, mean serum ionized magnesium concentrations were higher then in the control group, the differences were statistically significant.
