Basic Metabolic Panel

The Piccolo® Basic Metabolic Panel*, used with the Piccolo® blood chemistry analyzer or the Piccolo Xpress® chemistry analyzer, is intended to be used for the in vitro quantitative determination of calcium, chloride, creatinine, glucose, potassium, sodium, total carbon dioxide, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) in heparinized whole blood, heparinized plasma, or serum in a clinical laboratory setting or point-of-care location.

Creatinine	CRE	Renal disease and monitoring of renal dialysis.
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate [Calculated]	eGFR*	Identify individuals with reduced kidney function and help facilitate the detection of CKD.
Glucose	GLU	Carbohydrate metabolism disorders, including adult and juvenile diabetes mellitus and hypoglycemia
Potassium	K+	Renal glomerular or tubular disease, adrenocortical insufficiency, diabetic ketacidosis, excessive intravenous potassium therapy, sepsis, panhypopituitarism, in vitro hemolysis, hyperaldosteronism, malnutrition, hyperinsulinism, metabolic alkalosis and gastrointestinal loss.
Sodium	Na+	Dehydration, diabetes insipidus, loss of hypotonic gastrointestinal fluids, salt poisoning, selective depression of sense of thirst, skin losses, burns, sweating, hyperaldosteronism, CNS disorders, dilutional, depletional and delusional hyponatremia and syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion.
