A Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) provides insights into glucose, electrolytes, kidney function, and liver enzymes. But values can be confusing. This page explains the markers and how AI Lab Result Interpretation helps make sense of your results.
Important: Always use the reference ranges printed on your own report. Interpretation depends on history, medications, and lab methods.
What the markers mean
- Glucose — blood sugar at the time of the test.
- Electrolytes (Na, K, Cl, CO2) — balance of salts and acids in the body.
- BUN, Creatinine — kidney function and filtration efficiency.
- AST, ALT, ALP, Bilirubin — liver health and enzyme activity.
- Albumin, Total Protein — nutrition and protein status.
Common patterns
- High creatinine + low GFR → possible kidney stress.
- High ALT + AST → possible liver inflammation.
- Low sodium or potassium → electrolyte imbalance.
