Sodium Test Overview
A sodium blood test is used to measure the sodium content in the blood. It is an electrolyte. These are electrically charged minerals. Sodium helps to control the proportion of fluid and maintains a vital pH balance in the body. It does this by maintaining the levels of acid and base in the body. High levels [hypernatremia] or low levels [hyponatremia] of sodium in the blood may be a sign of inefficient functioning of the bodily systems.
Thus, it helps in the proper working of nerves and muscles in the body.
Under ideal conditions, your body will maintain the levels of sodium in a narrow range. But if the levels are too high or low, it might indicate a kidney problem, dehydration, or perhaps another medical anomaly.

Sodium holds water in the blood and high levels increases the blood volume thereby increasing the pressure. The human body regulates sodium level extremely carefully to maintain optimum levels, especially the kidneys. The kidneys sense the sodium level in the blood and whenever high level is found, kidneys eliminate it. And in case of low sodium levels, it retains it be reabsorbing the sodium from the blood that is initially filtered by the kidneys.
