What Is an Electrolytes Test?

An electrolyte test is a blood test that measures the levels of key minerals with an electric charge in your body. These minerals, called electrolytes, help your nerves, muscles, heart, and brain function properly. The test uses a serum sample collected from your blood. This simple test helps detect imbalances that may indicate conditions such as dehydration, kidney disease, or heart problems.
