Metabolic panel may refer to either a basic metabolic panel (BMP or chem-8) or comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP or chem-14). A BMP is a blood test which measures the levels of 8 chemical compounds including sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose and calcium. A CMP is a blood test which measures all the aformentioned compounds in addition to alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein, albumin, AST, ALT and total bilirubin. eGFR refers to the estimated glomerular filtration rate which is usually calculated in the medical setting using the MDRD equation using the patient's age, gender, race and serum creatinine levels.
