Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A1c, also known as glycated hemoglobin, provides an average of blood glucose levels over the past 2-3 months and is a reliable indicator of long-term glucose control. FBG (fasting blood glucose) measures glucose levels after an overnight fast, while urine glucose and OGTT (oral glucose tolerance test) are not as accurate in measuring long-term glucose levels and are used more for diagnostic purposes.
