Blood Glucose in Diagnosing Diabetes

Cards (1)

  • Blood Glucose in Diagnosing Diabetes:
    • fasting (plasma glucose)
    • normal = less than 5.5 mmol/L
    • prediabetes = 5.5 to 6.9 mmol/L
    • diabetes = equal to/more than 7.0 mmol/L
    • random (glucose)
    • normal = less than 11.1 mmol/L
    • prediabetes = N/A
    • diabetes = equal to/more than 11.1 mmol/L
    • oral glucose tolerance test (2 hour post glucose load)
    • normal = N/A
    • prediabetes = equal to/more than 7.8 to 11 mmol/L
    • diabetes = equal to/more than 11.1 mmol/L
    • HbA1c
    • normal = equal to/more than 41 mmol/L
    • prediabetes = equal to/more than 42 to 47 mmol/L
    • diabetes = equal to/more than 48 mmol/L
