Estimated Average Glucose and Self-Monitored Mean Blood Glucose Are Discordant Estimates of Glycemic Control
OBJECTIVE The A1C-Derived Average Glucose study recommended reporting A1C in estimated average glucose (eAG) equivalents. We compared eAG with self-monitored mean blood glucose (MBG) to determine whether eAG is systematically biased due to biological variation in the relationship between MBG and A1C. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS MBG and A1C were recorded from charts of 202 pediatric type 1 dia...
متن کاملTranslating hemoglobin A1c into average blood glucose: implications for clinical chemistry.
Measurement of hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) 2 is a fundamental component of the management of patients with diabetes mellitus. Hb A1c measurement provides an indication of chronic exposure to glucose and is extensively used for both monitoring long-term glycemic status and evaluating whether an individual patient has attained adequate metabolic control. The patient’s Hb A1c value is used by clinicia...
متن کاملCorrelation between hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and average blood glucose: can HbA1c be reported as estimated blood glucose concentration?
Glycation is the nonenzymatic addition of sugar to amino groups of proteins. While virtually any protein in the body can be glycated, for convenience and ease of obtaining a sample, glycated hemoglobin is measured in the blood obtained from a patient. Blood glucose concentrations exhibit wide diurnal fluctuations due to food ingestion, exercise, and other factors. In contrast, the concentration...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c: Clinical applications and analytical considerations
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is the most common disorder of carbohydrate metabolism. Hyperglycemia is the common feature of DM. Hyperglycemia causes cardiovascular, renal, ocular, and peripheral nerve disorders in patients with diabetes. Glycemic regulation plays an essential role in controlling these complications. Thus, evaluation of the glycemic control status is crucial in the management of DM. H...
متن کاملThe Reporting of Estimated Glucose with Hemoglobin A1c
Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) 2 is a key parameter for understanding glycemic control in diabetes. It is used by both clinicians and patients to trigger adjustments in behavior and treatment. In general, clinicians understand Hb A1c and its limitations well, but evidence suggests that patients have difficulty understanding what Hb A1c means and how it relates to glucose. This situation may be particu...
