Interpretation of biochemistry panels from dogs and cats is a daily task in veterinary practice. Understanding the most likely causes for unexpected, or confusing results, and therefore knowing which results to trust or which to repeat is vital. This talk discusses the electrolytes measured in a standard biochemistry profile, the strengths and limitations of individual analytes and how patient physiology must be taken into consideration when interpreting data.
