Order Electrolyte PanelThe electrolyte panel is a routine blood test that measures the concentration of key charged minerals in the body.

About Electrolyte Panel in Newport Beach
An electrolyte panel reports the levels of several dissolved minerals that carry an electrical charge in body fluids.
The panel typically includes sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate, and it may also report calcium or other related measures depending on the laboratory. Sodium and potassium are the most abundant electrolytes in extracellular and intracellular fluid, respectively, while chloride and bicarbonate help reflect hydration and acid-base balance.
Results are reported as concentrations, usually in millimoles per liter or milliequivalents per liter, alongside a reference interval established by the performing laboratory. Values above or below that interval are flagged, but a single abnormal result is interpreted in context; medications, hydration status, kidney function, and recent illness can all influence electrolyte levels.
Preparation is generally minimal, and any specific instructions come from the laboratory performing the collection. Turnaround is commonly within one to three business days, after which results are reviewed by the ordering clinician in light of the patient's history and other laboratory findings.
