This lesson kicks off a new quick series looking at various labs and tests that are important to know in the ICU. We start off with our green top tube and take a look at our metabolic panels (BMP vs CMP) and discuss the different tests and results that we find in there. I finish up the lesson talking about some of the missing electrolytes from those tests that we often still look to check with critically ill patients.
