Monitor long-term blood sugar control with the HbA1c test on your health card, essential for diabetes management and prevention.
The Health Card HbA1c Test is a valuable tool for monitoring long-term blood sugar levels, providing an average blood glucose reading over the last two to three months by measuring glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in the blood. When glucose in the blood attaches to hemoglobin, it forms HbA1c, giving insight into blood sugar control over time. This test is essential for both diabetes diagnosis and management.
a) Diabetes Diagnosis and Management: HbA1c is widely used to diagnose prediabetes and diabetes. For those already diagnosed, it helps assess how well blood sugar is controlled, guiding medication, dietary, and lifestyle changes.
b) Early Detection of Health Risks: Monitoring HbA1c levels can indicate the risk of complications related to diabetes, such as cardiovascular disease, nerve damage, and kidney issues, allowing for timely intervention.
c) Convenience and Precision: Unlike daily glucose monitoring, the HbA1c test reflects an average of blood sugar levels over a longer period, offering a broader picture without the need for fasting.
1. Individuals with Diabetes: Regular HbA1c testing (every three months) is crucial for managing diabetes.
2. Those at Risk for Diabetes: People with a family history, of obesity, or symptoms like frequent urination, fatigue, and increased thirst should consider regular testing.
3. Anyone with Pre-diabetes: Early monitoring helps prevent the progression to diabetes through proactive management.
