• Determination is used to diagnose hyper- resp. hypoparathyroidism.
• Concentration should only be assessed when ionised Ca (and possibly phosphate) levels are determined simultaneously.
• Possible causes for high levels of PTH are low levels of calcium, e.g. in case of renal dysfunction, and disorders of vitamin D balance.
