BMP stands for basic metabolic profile which contains electrolytes, etc., which you mentioned in the sentence preceding. BNP is generally a single value and numbers can get pretty high.
Stedman's Path/Lab would be helpful to you. It lists standardized lab values in the back of the book, 49 pages!, definitely worth the price of the book.

Definition of Natriuretic peptide
Natriuretic peptide: One of the peptides that causes natriuresis, the excretion of an excessively large amount of sodium in the urine. The natriuretic peptides are produced by the heart and vasculature:
* A-type natriuretic peptide is secreted largely by the atrial myocardium in response to dilatation.
* B-type natriuretic peptide is manufactured mainly by the ventricular myocardium.
* C-type natriuretic peptide is produced by endothelial cells that line the blood vessels.
B-type natriuretic peptide is useful in the diagnosis of heart failure. The finding of a low level of B-type natriuretic peptide tends to exclude heart failure.

I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
Subject: I would type it under PLAN and type what is dictated.
I have had that happen to me before, and I was told by QA to not move things around in the report, maybe that is the same for you, but if I were typing this report, I would type it in the order as is dictated, even if that means typing it under the heading PLAN. Also, his vitals were probably taken at the end of the exam as they were repeated, so it would make sense to type them again under that heading. Hope that helps!
