The hypocalcaemia observed in infants and children may have different causes, the most common being vitamin D deficiency rickets, which still exists, and hypoparathyroidism, which is rare. The clinical manifestations of hypocalcaemia may be neurological disorders, such as seizures, respiratory disorders with possible laryngospasm or severe cardiac disorders that may result in sudden death. Pronounced or symptomatic hypoglycaemia requires hospitalization and active therapy. Treatment has now been improved by the 1-hydroxyle derivatives of vitamin D.
婴儿和儿童中观察到的低钙血症可能有不同原因，最常见的是仍然存在的维生素D缺乏性佝偻病，以及罕见的甲状旁腺功能减退症。低钙血症的临床表现可能为神经紊乱，如惊厥、可能伴有喉痉挛的呼吸紊乱或可能导致猝死的严重心脏紊乱。明显的或有症状的低血糖症需要住院并积极治疗。现在，维生素D的1-羟基衍生物已改善了治疗方法。
