BMP or basic metabolic profile came into use when Medicare authorized a number of approved laboratory test panels. This test profile includes glucose, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, sodium, potassium, chloride, & CO2. The test is helpful in evaluating patients for diabetes, kidney disease, and acid-base and electrolyte balance. It is often done as part of an admission profile to provide a baseline and is useful as a follow up test to the treatment of these conditions.
