Metabolic Panel (8), Basic

This test measures eight key substances in your blood, including glucose (sugar), calcium, electrolytes, and waste products filtered by your kidneys. It helps show whether your body’s fluid balance and blood sugar are stable and how efficiently your kidneys are functioning. These results assist in ruling out or monitoring conditions like dehydration, kidney disease, or diabetes. However, this test does not evaluate liver function or diagnose the specific cause of an electrolyte imbalance without further investigation.
