What tests are needed to determine diabetes

The tests that are usually needed to determine diabetes include blood glucose test, oral glucose tolerance test, glycated hemoglobin A1c, and so on. 1. Blood glucose test: This test can accurately detect abnormal changes in blood glucose, reflecting the body’s ability to maintain glucose metabolism homeostasis. Under normal circumstances, the fasting blood glucose of adults is 3.9~6.1mmol/L, and the blood glucose of 2 hours after meal is less than 7.8mmol/L. 2. Oral glucose tolerance test: this test is mainly to reflect the body’s ability to handle the sugar load, normal blood glucose peaks 0.5~1 hour after 75g of oral glucose, if the peak is delayed, it is necessary to pay attention to the presence of diabetes. 3. Glycated hemoglobin A1c: Glycated hemoglobin A1c reflects the average blood glucose level in the past 2~3 months, and the normal range is 4%~6%. If you suspect that you have diabetes, it is recommended that you go to the hospital in a timely manner and cooperate with the doctor to complete a series of related examinations.
