What is Understanding Anion Gap in Blood Tests about?

The anion gap test measures electrolytes in the blood to determine acid-base balance, with a high result indicating too much acidity and a low result indicating not enough. It is calculated from sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate levels obtained in an electrolyte panel, and abnormal values can signal disorders like acidosis from dehydration, kidney disease, or diabetic ketoacidosis.
