A blood test is a laboratory analysis performed on a blood sample that is usually extracted from a vein in the arm using a needle, or via fingerprick.

Reference ranges for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples.

A basic metabolic panel measures sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), magnesium, creatinine, and glucose. It also sometimes includes calcium.
Some blood tests, such as those that measure glucose, cholesterol, or for determining the existence or lack of STD, require fasting (or no food consumption) eight to twelve hours prior to the drawing of the blood sample.

Pros and cons of Blood Test Guide app for iPhone and iPad

Blood Test Guide app good for

Thank you for the application, it gives us wonderful information about blood work. We can be our doctor
A great tool to have, especially if you have regular blood work done.

Some bad moments

Some other free apps (e.g. MDezLabs) are more comprehensive, but this app is great for the most common causes of the most common abnormal lab tests.
This app is easy to use & simple to understand. Ive shared it with my doctors & nurses who thought it would be helpful for patients.
Using as a study guide. It is nice to have info at fingertips!!!
Some data are inaccurate. Clinical information is so incomplete as to be misleading. DO NOT DO ANYTHING BASED SOLELY ON WHAT YOU READ HERE! Take their advice seriously and discuss results with your health care provider.
This app was designed for iPhone, and it found its way to the iPad with no change except magnifying the size of everything. Text and icons are so large that I had to distance my iPad to be able to look at it. The language used is not layman friendly, with lots of medical jargon (copy/past from text books or something) Some of the tests have reference range that are invented for sure. Glucose reference ranges are an example of loads of ignorance to what science tells us. Where did they come up with these reference ranges is unknown. Bottom line: minimally useful app, designed for iPhone not iPad, not layman friendly, with inaccurate information.
Im a advanced lab tech and this apply explain all blood tests I perform in the lab. The ranges are similar if not dead on w/ our analyzers. Even the doctors and PAs enjoy this app.
