Depends a lot. they may or may not check for STD's. Some have a policy of doing that, most don't unless that is what they suspect. They typically do liver panels, blood counts, level of minerals in your blood, blood sugar, things like that. Blood tests can be very extensive, especially if they do a hormone panel or something on that order.

It depends on why you're in the hospital but routine blood work includes a WBC (white blood count) to determine infection (bacterial or viral) and a hemoglobin. Based on the results, further testing may be done.

Well since this question is posted under Diabetes. If you are getting labs for Diabetes you would get a HgbA1c, CMP, and FLP.
HgbA1c - gives your doctor an idea how well your blood sugar has been over the last 3 months
CMP - Tests for different things, mainly used to check the kidneys though.
FLP - Used to check your cholesterol

The symptoms for which you are visiting the hospital determine what tests they will run on your blood.

Depends on what you're getting the blood work done for.

Sometimes it depends but most of the time I think its your WBC (white blood count) or your RBC (red blood count)
