Obstetric Panel. An obstetric panel is a group of blood tests done to check the health of a woman before and during early pregnancy. The results of these tests can help find certain problems during the pregnancy. They can also help guide any treatment needed for a woman during pregnancy or for a baby immediately after birth. Blood type, antibody screening, and a complete blood count (CBC) are all part of an obstetric panel.
Examples of common chemistry panels include: 1  Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP) â usually contains 8 tests, all of which are found in the CMP (below); provides information about the current status of a person's kidneys and respiratory system as well as electrolyte and acid/base balance and level of blood glucose.If a laboratory changes the tests in a CMP or BMP, it will usually also change the name of the panel to avoid confusion.) For a list of the tests included in each of these panels and more information, such as when they may be ordered, click on the name of the panel above to go to its full article.
