What Is an Electrolyte / pH Imbalance Test?

An Electrolyte Test evaluates essential minerals that regulate hydration, nerve conduction, muscle function, and heart rhythm. pH imbalance testing helps determine if the body is too acidic or alkaline, which may indicate dehydration, metabolic disorders, or organ dysfunction.

What We Evaluate During Your Testing:
  • Sodium, potassium, chloride, magnesium, and calcium levels
  • Acidity and alkalinity (blood pH)
  • Signs of dehydration or overhydration
  • Muscle cramps, fatigue, palpitations, or dizziness
  • Kidney function and metabolic status
  • Effects of illness, exercise, or chronic conditions
  • Recommendations for treatment or follow-up testing

Why Early Electrolyte & pH Testing Matters

In-home testing eliminates travel and provides immediate clinical assessment. With UrgentCare2Go®, patients receive convenient, private testing to help identify imbalances quickly and safely.

  • Detect dehydration, illness, or metabolic disorders early
  • Prevent complications related to electrolyte imbalance
  • Guide effective hydration and treatment strategies
  • Support ongoing management of chronic medical conditions
