It is a laboratory equipment that allows us to know immediately the levels of glycosylated hemoglobin in a blood sample, this apparatus has as function the standardization of the results of glycosylated hemoglobin tests, in addition to marking the direct relationships between the levels of HbA1c and the possible risks that establish these results in patients with diabetes; so the main use of an HbA1c analyser is to offer results with guarantee in accuracy and reliability in the study of glycosylated hemoglobin.
The use of this analyser in a laboratory clearly offers the advantage of being able to perform the glycosylated hemoglobin blood test for the control of patients with diabetes, because this test consists of providing the values of glucose or blood glucose concentration that the patient has had during the last months, in addition to being able to perform the analysis in an easy, simple and non-invasive way, through a prick.
Reasons to use an HbA1c analyser
- An HbA1c test is done to detect and diagnose prediabetes and control diabetes.
- To know the average levels of glycemia present in the last months.
- It facilitates the control of diabetes disease, helping the patient to be vigilant and anticipate any complications.
- It provides a balance of the disease and allows to maintain, modify or adjust the treatment of the patient with diabetes.
- Only one injection and monitoring should be performed every 3 to 6 months as medically necessary.
How to interpret the results of an HbA1c analyser
Being the main function of an HbA1c analyser to diagnose diabetes, it is important to know the relationship between A1C and glycemia, obtaining the following results:
Normal (negative to diabetes): Less than 5.7%
Prediabetes: 5.7% to 6.4%
Diabetes: 6.5% or more
Now, the goal or goal of the patient should be to keep levels below 7%, which would be considered to be in perfect health, however, we must recognize that incorrect results can be obtained due to other pathologies such as anemia, kidney disease, blood conditions: thalassemia; you must notify the treating physician if you suffer from any of these conditions that may cause false levels of HbA1c.
Consequences of abnormal HbA1c results
- If levels are high, but you do not have diabetes, this result could mean that you can be diagnosed with diabetes.
- If you already have diabetes and your results are high, this means you have no control over the disease.
- The higher the HbA1c, the higher the risk that you will develop problems such as: Eye disease, Heart disease, Kidney disease, Neurological damage, Stroke.
