Description

A sodium test measures the amount of sodium in your blood to help diagnose and monitor conditions affecting fluid balance, blood pressure, and nerve and muscle function. The test is a simple blood draw, often part of an electrolyte or metabolic panel, and typically does not require special preparation. Normal blood sodium levels are between 135 and 145 mEq/L, and levels outside this range may indicate health issues like dehydration, kidney problems, or hormonal imbalances.  .rPeykc.rWIipd{font-size:var(--m3t5);font-weight:500;line-height:var(--m3t6);margin:20px 0 10px 0}.f5cPye ul{font-size:var(--m3t7);line-height:var(--m3t8);margin:10px 0 20px 0;padding-inline-start:24px}.f5cPye .WaaZC:first-of-type ul:first-child{margin-top:0}.f5cPye ul.qh1nvc{font-size:var(--m3t7);line-height:var(--m3t8)}.f5cPye li{padding-left:4px;margin-bottom:8px;list-style:inherit}.f5cPye li.K3KsMc{list-style-type:none}.f5cPye ul>li:last-child,.f5cPye ol>li:last-child,.f5cPye ul>.bsmXxe:last-child>li,.f5cPye ol>.bsmXxe:last-child>li{margin-bottom:0} What the test is for Diagnostic tool: Measures sodium levels to identify potential health problems.  Monitoring conditions: Tracks conditions like high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney problems, and dehydration.  Part of other tests: Often included as part of an electrolyte panel, Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP), or Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP).  .zMgcWd{padding-bottom:16px;padding-top:8px;border-bottom:none}.dSKvsb{padding-bottom:0}li.K3KsMc .dSKvsb{margin-inline-start:-28px}.GmFi7{display:flex;width:100%}.f5cPye li:first-child .zMgcWd{padding-top:0}.f5cPye li:last-child .zMgcWd{border-bottom:none;padding-bottom:0}.xFTqob{flex:1;min-width:0}.Gur8Ad{font-size:var(--m3t11);font-weight:500;line-height:var(--m3t12);overflow:hidden;padding-bottom:4px;transition:transform 200ms cubic-bezier(0.20,0.00,0.00,1.00)}.vM0jzc{color:var(--m3c9);font-size:var(--m3t7);line-height:var(--m3t8)}.vM0jzc ul,.vM0jzc ol{font-size:var(--m3t7) !important;line-height:var(--m3t8) !important;margin-top:8px !important}.vM0jzc li ul,.vM0jzc li ol{font-size:var(--m3t9) !important;letter-spacing:0.1px !important;line-height:var(--m3t10) !important;margin-top:0 !important}.vM0jzc ul li{list-style-type:disc}.vM0jzc ui li li{list-style-type:circle}.vM0jzc .rPeykc:first-child{margin-top:0}.uVhVib{color:var(--m3c12);font-weight:500;text-decoration:underline;text-decoration-color:color-mix(in srgb,var(--m3c12) 85%,transparent);text-decoration-thickness:1px;text-underline-offset:1px} How to prepare No special preparation: Usually, no specific preparation is needed, and you can eat and drink normally beforehand, according to CARE Hospitals.  Follow doctor's advice: Your doctor may advise you to temporarily stop taking certain medications that can affect the results.  Mount Sinaihttps://www.mountsinai.orgSodium urine test Information | Mount Sinai - New YorkSodium urine test Information | Mount Sinai - New York.
