Electrolytes such as sodium, Potassium, Calcium measured within 48 hours admission. Results: Out patients, 44 males 36 females. STEMI seen 64 NSTEMI 16. In STEMI, 50 normal, 14 hyponatremia NSTEMI, 10 normal 6 had hyponatremia. difference significant (p<0.05). 52 12 hypokalemia no abnormality 4 hypokalemia. abnormality, 8 hypocalcemia 20 hypocalcemia. Conclusion: Hypocalcemia maximum cases compared
