Measurement of Hemoglobin A1c
Evaluation of glycemia is used for the diagnosis and management of patients with diabetes. Glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) provide complementary information and both are used to assess an individual’s glycemic status. The concentration of glucose in the blood indicates the subject’s glycemia at the time of blood sampling. However, blood glucose concentrations are modified by numerous factors...
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...
متن کاملThe Reporting of Estimated Glucose with Hemoglobin A1c
Healthcare providers and patients with diabetes evaluate the efficacy of glycemic control by 2 strategies. One strategy involves self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) by patients, with portable meters and continuous blood glucose monitors or sensing devices. Patients use these glucose values for daily decisionmaking to adjust medication doses and/or modify food intake or exercise regimens. Bl...
متن کاملThe correlation of hemoglobin A1c to blood glucose.
The understanding that hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) represents the average blood glucose level of patients over the previous 120 days underlies the current management of diabetes. Even in making such a statement, we speak of "average blood glucose" as though "blood glucose" were itself a simple idea. When we consider all the blood glucose forms-arterial versus venous versus capillary, whole blood ver...
