A renal panel is a blood test that looks at several different measures of kidney function. It can be used to diagnose or monitor diseases and conditions that affect the kidneys. It generally includes tests for creatinine blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and electrolytes such as sodium potassium and chloride. It may also include tests for calcium phosphate and uric acid. The renal panel can give doctors a better understanding of how well the kidneys are functioning and can help to diagnose and monitor conditions such as Diabetes high blood pressure and kidney failure.
Here is a list of the common components of a renal panel:
- Creatinine
- Blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
- Sodium
- Potassium
- Chloride
- Calcium
- Phosphate
- Uric acid
The renal panel can be an important tool in helping to diagnose and monitor kidney-related diseases and conditions.
