Whole Blood Donation Affects the Interpretation of Hemoglobin A1c
INTRODUCTION Several factors, including changed dynamics of erythrocyte formation and degradation, can influence the degree of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) formation thereby affecting its use in monitoring diabetes. This study determines the influence of whole blood donation on HbA1c in both non-diabetic blood donors and blood donors with type 2 diabetes. METHODS In this observational study, 23 non...
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...
متن کاملMeasurement 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 کاملUnexpected hemoglobin A1c results.
A 52-year-old woman with a medical history of hepatitis B, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, anemia, and depression presented to the internal medicine clinic for a routine visit. Laboratory tests 3 months previously had revealed an impaired fasting glucose concentration of 5.9 mmol/L (106 mg/dL) [reference interval, 3.9 –5.6 mmol/L (70 –100 mg/dL)]. Therefore, a hemoglobin (Hb) A1c analysis was per...
متن کاملGlobal Harmonization of Hemoglobin A1c
Measurement of glycohemoglobin (GHb) is widely used in patients with diabetes mellitus as a monitor of longterm glycemic control (1–3). In addition, prospective randomized clinical trials, most notably the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) and the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), have demonstrated that GHb is a measure of the risk for the development of diabetes ...
