The Chloride Test measures chloride, an essential electrolyte in the blood, which plays a vital role in muscle and nerve functions, maintaining blood pH, and supporting heart and kidney health. Electrolytes like chloride, sodium, and potassium work together to ensure cells maintain electrical neutrality and the body functions optimally. Doctors may prescribe this test to diagnose kidney, liver, and adrenal health issues or assess overall wellness. The Chloride Test may be part of an electrolyte panel or comprehensive metabolic panel.

The Chloride Test helps evaluate: Kidney and liver function: Abnormal levels may indicate kidney or liver disease. Adrenal health: Useful in detecting adrenal gland issues like Cushing's syndrome. pH balance: Important for maintaining the body’s acid-base balance. Electrolyte imbalance symptoms: Diagnoses dehydration, excessive sweating, or fluid imbalance. Breathing or cardiac irregularities: Identifies respiratory alkalosis or heart failure-related issues.
