On this card

A dense, field-kit lab values card. Normal adult ranges for the labs you check most — plus the extended chemistry, blood gas, and cardiac numbers — in clean labeled rows you can read at a glance mid-shift, with high-alert analytes flagged in amber. Built for nurses, paramedics, med-surg and ICU staff, and students. Clips behind your ID badge and stays there until you need it.

Front

basic metabolic panel (Na, K, Cl/CO₂, BUN/Cr, glucose, calcium, Mg/phos); extended chemistry (anion gap, osmolality, ammonia, lipase); and a full ABG block — pH, PaCO₂, PaO₂, HCO₃⁻, SaO₂, and lactate with its >4 critical threshold.

Back

CBC (WBC, Hgb, Hct, platelets); coagulation (PT, INR with therapeutic range, aPTT, fibrinogen, D-dimer); cardiac markers (troponin, BNP); liver function (AST/ALT, alk phos, bilirubin/albumin); and an amber HIGH-ALERT recap panel — K, glucose, INR, and lactate on one glance. Rigid PVC, water-resistant, standard CR80 badge size in the tan field-kit colorway with dark olive-and-amber print. Punched badge-reel slot at the top for clips, reels, and lanyards. Clinician-reviewed. Educational reference only — ranges vary by facility and lab, so always follow your institution's policies.
