The CBC & CMP package includes 2 of the most common general wellness lab tests bundles together for additional savings.  The complete CBC test and the CMP test both include a number of measurements to help with evaluating multiple factors related to good health.  

A CBC blood test includes:

• White Blood Cell Count (WBC) WBC's protect the body against infections.
• Red Blood Cell Count (RBC) RBC's carry oxygen throughout the body.
• Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) is the variation in size of the RBCs.
• Hematocrit measures the percentage of blood made up of red blood cells.
• Hemoglobin is a protein that carries oxygen in the blood.
• Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) measures the average size of RBCs.
• Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) measures the average amount of hemoglobin in a red blood cell.
• Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) is the average percentage of hemoglobin in a red blood cell.
• Platelet Count measures cell fragments which are vital for proper blood clotting.
• Percentage and absolute differential count for types of WBC's including neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils.

A Comprehensive Metabolic Panel includes:

• Glucose: Abnormal blood sugar levels can indicate a number of conditions including Diabetes.
• BUN (Blood Urea Nitrogen): Used to evaluate kidney function.
• Creatinine: Used to Evaluate Kidney Function.
• BUN/Creatinine Ratio: This measurement can indicate kidney disease or conditions such as dehydration or intestinal bleeding.

• Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Carbon Dioxide, Total: An improper electrolyte balance can indicate a number of conditions including dehydration, Addison's disease, kidney disease, and Diabetes.
• Calcium: Normal levels are important for healthy bones, heart, nerves, kidneys, and teeth.
• Protein, Total: Aids in measuring Liver and Kidney function as well as nutritional status.
• Albumin: A protein important for healthy liver and kidney function.
• Globulin: A protein that helps the body fight infection and the blood to clot properly.
• Albumin/Globulin Ratio: This can help identify various liver problems when combined with other test results.
• Bilirubin, Total: Helps to identify conditions such as anemia, sickle cell, hepatitis, cirrhosis, alcohol, and drug abuse.
• Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP): Used to detect liver disease or bone disorders.
• Aspartate Amino Transferase (AST): Used to evaluate liver function, very high levels often indicate Hepatitis
• Alanine Amino Transferase (ALT): Used to help identify liver damage

These tests may be ordered as part of a routine health screening or regular checkup.  They can also be done when a person is suffering from ambiguous symptoms to provide information that can assist in making a diagnosis.  Request A Test offers a number of general health testing packages including the Basic Wellness Panel, Comprehensive Wellness Panel, or Ultimate Wellness Panel.  These packages are excellent options for those who need a more extensive selection of testing.
