How much blood sugar control for diabetic patients

The target of blood glucose control for diabetic patients varies slightly according to the patient’s age, duration of diabetes, complications and life expectancy, and is divided into the following cases: First, most patients should achieve fasting blood glucose less than 7.0 mmol/L, non-fasting blood glucose less than 4.0 mmol/L and glycated hemoglobin less than 7%. Second, if the patient is old, combined with a variety of complications and frequent hypoglycemia, the target can be relaxed appropriately, with fasting blood glucose less than 8.0mmol/L and non-fasting blood glucose less than 11.1mmol/L. Third, if life expectancy is very limited, life cannot be taken care of by oneself, and blood sugar cannot be monitored, etc., fasting blood sugar of 10.0mmol/L and non-fasting blood sugar of no more than 13.9mmol/L can be maintained, in order to prevent acute metabolic disorders. Fourth, the goal of gestational diabetes control is fasting blood sugar lower than 5.3mmol/L, one hour after meal blood sugar lower than 7.8mmol/L, two hours after meal blood sugar lower than 6.7mmol/L.
