Yes, total bilirubin is typically included in a complete metabolic panel, which is a blood test that measures various components in the blood, including liver function markers like bilirubin, as well as electrolytes, glucose, and kidney function markers.

When testing for a comprehensive metabolic panel, one should check various components including glucose levels to assess blood sugar, electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, kidney function markers like creatinine, liver enzymes such as AST and ALT, and protein levels like albumin and total protein. These components provide valuable information about the body's metabolism, organ function, and overall health status.
A basic metabolic panel blood test typically includes measurements of glucose, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate), kidney function markers (creatinine and blood urea nitrogen), and sometimes liver function markers (albumin and total protein). These tests help assess overall health by providing information about blood sugar levels, electrolyte balance, and kidney function.
Normal values of indirect bilirubin typically range from 0.2-0.8 mg/dL, while direct bilirubin values usually fall between 0.1-0.3 mg/dL. These values may vary slightly depending on the laboratory reference range used.

The CMP includes everything the BMP does, but also albumin, total protein, alkaline phosphate, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and bilirubin.
Liver makes bilirubin water soluble for excretion into the urine....get total bilirubin from complete CFP...
Total bilirubin is a measure of the bilirubin levels in the blood, which is a yellow compound produced during the breakdown of red blood cells. It consists of two fractions: unconjugated (indirect) bilirubin, which is not water-soluble and is processed by the liver, and conjugated (direct) bilirubin, which is water-soluble and excreted in bile. Elevated levels of total bilirubin can indicate liver dysfunction, bile duct obstruction, or hemolysis. Testing total bilirubin is often part of a liver function panel to assess liver health.
Metabolic panel may refer to either a basic metabolic panel (BMP or chem-8) or comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP or chem-14). A BMP is a blood test which measures the levels of 8 chemical compounds including sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose and calcium. A CMP is a blood test which measures all the aformentioned compounds in addition to alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein, albumin, AST, ALT and total bilirubin. eGFR refers to the estimated glomerular filtration rate which is usually calculated in the medical setting using the MDRD equation using the patient's age, gender, race and serum creatinine levels.
yes
== CMP (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel)== A CMP, otherwise known as a comprehensive metabolic panel, is a frequently-ordered blood test used by doctors to take a "glance" at a patient's blood sugar, kidney function,liver function, & fluid & electrolyte balance. The levels that are evaluated include glucose, calcium, total protein, albumin, sodium, potassium, chloride, CO2 (carbon dioxide), BUN (blood urea nitrogen), creatinine, ALP (alkaline phosphatase) , ALT (alanine amino transferase, or SGPT), AST (aspartate amino transferase, or SGOT), & bilirubin.
80076 is a CPT pathology and laboratory code for a: Hepatic function panel which must include: albumin; bilirubin, total; bilirubin, direct; phosphatase, alkaline; protein, total; transferase, alanine amino (ALT) (SGPT); transferase, aspartate amino (AST) (SGOT).
Bilirubin is measured in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL). An example of normal values for adults is: Total bilirubin: 0.3 to 1.9 mg/dL. Direct bilirubin: 0.0 to 0.3 mg/dL.
82247 -BILIRUBIN; TOTAL Liver Function test , includes the total , direct and indirect bilirubin.
Comprehensive metabolic panel This panel must include the following: Albumin (82040) Bilirubin, total (82247) Calcium, total (82310) Carbon dioxide (bicarbonate) (82374) Chloride (82435) Creatinine (82565) Glucose (82947) Phosphatase, alkaline (84075) Potassium (84132) Protein, total (84155) Sodium (84295) Transferase, alanine amino (ALT) (SGPT) (84460) Transferase, aspartate amino (AST) (SGOT) (84450) Urea nitrogen (BUN) (84520) It's a lab test.
The letters used to represent bilirubin count on a blood test are usually "T Bili" for total bilirubin and "D Bili" for direct bilirubin. Total bilirubin includes both direct and indirect bilirubin, while direct bilirubin specifically measures the amount that is conjugated and ready to be cleared by the liver.
The presence of bilirubin can be confirmed through blood tests such as a total bilirubin test or a direct bilirubin test. These tests measure levels of bilirubin in the blood to assess liver function and diagnose conditions such as jaundice or liver disease.
