H.J. Odendaal

Abstract

In an attempt to evaluate the aetiology and therapy of leg cramps during pregnancy. patients at an antenatal clinic were treated with calcium or a placebo. The cramps were also evaluated clinically. It was found that calcium and placebo gave the same results and it is suggested that a study be made of ionised calcium levels during pregnancy.
