Diabetes is a major cause of serious complication diseases such as stroke, heart disease, kidney failure, blindness and it may lead to disability in patients due to a single wound. It can also take a person’s life if the blood sugar level is uncontrolled.

Thus, monitoring blood glucose level is the main focus to evaluate and diagnose diabetes; and also includes the possibility of complication diseases in diabetes patients.

What is “HBA1c” ?
Haemoglobin A1c or (HBA1c) is a measurement of glucose level bound with the haemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells. Certain value indicates the average level of glucose in the blood before and after meal over the past 3 months. It is an important blood test that gives a good indication of how well the diabetes is being controlled.
