Arsenic Blood*

An electrolyte panel, also known as a serum electrolyte test, is a blood test that measures levels of the body's main electrolytes: Sodium, which helps control the amount of fluid in the body. It also helps your nerves and muscles work properly. Chloride, which also helps control the amount of fluid in the body.

Indication: Measures the active, free form of calcium in the blood. Why it's needed: More precise than total calcium in assessing neuromuscular, kidney, and parathyroid disorders.

Indication: Screens for toxic heavy metals and essential trace elements. Why it's needed: Helps detect environmental or occupational toxicity and nutrient imbalances.

Indication: Checks chloride, an important electrolyte. Why it's needed: Imbalance may indicate dehydration, metabolic acidosis, or renal issues.

Indication: Measures zinc concentration in blood. Why it's needed: Important for immune function, wound healing, growth, and fertility.

Indication: Evaluates hydration and electrolyte balance. Why it's needed: Helps diagnose hyponatremia or hypernatremia, both serious fluid/electrolyte imbalances.

Indication: Evaluates magnesium deficiency or excess, which affects nerves, muscles, and heart. Why it's needed: Low levels can cause cramps, arrhythmias, or weakness; often monitored in ICU and kidney patients.

Indication: Key electrolyte for nerve and muscle function. Why it's needed: Abnormal levels can cause cardiac arrhythmias, muscle weakness, or kidney issues.

Indication: Evaluates copper levels in blood. Why it's needed: Important in diagnosing Wilson’s disease or nutritional deficiencies.
