CMP Normal Values Chart

Doctors or healthcare providers typically request a CMP routine blood test during check-ups or when monitoring ongoing health conditions. It helps them assess your organs like kidney or liver function, detect potential issues, or track changes in your overall health.

A bilirubin blood test measures the amount of bilirubin, a yellow substance made when your body breaks down old red blood cells. The test helps find issues with your liver, gallbladder, or red blood cells and can detect conditions like jaundice or liver disease.

The 14 tests included in a CMP are glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, carbon dioxide (CO2), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, albumin, total protein, bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT).
