   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_glucose_test

   The reference values for a "normal" random glucose test in an average adult are 80–140mg/dl (4.4–7.8 mmol/l), between 140 and 200mg/dl (7.8–11.1 mmol/l) is considered pre-diabetes [citation needed], and ≥ 200 mg/dl is considered diabetes according to ADA guidelines [1] (you should visit your doctor or a clinic for additional tests however as a random glucose of > 160mg/dl does not ...

3. Blood sugar level - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar_level

   The ADA (American Diabetes Association) recommends seeing a doctor if blood glucose reaches 13.3 mmol/L (240 mg/dL), [26] and it is recommended to seek emergency treatment at 15 mmol/L (270 mg/dL) blood glucose if Ketones are present. [27] The most common cause of hyperglycemia is diabetes.

4. Blood glucose monitoring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_glucose_monitoring

   Blood glucose monitoring is the use of a glucose meter for testing the concentration of glucose in the blood . Particularly important in diabetes management , a blood glucose test is typically performed by piercing the skin (typically, via fingerstick ) to draw blood, then applying the blood to a chemically active disposable 'test-strip'.

5. Glucose test - Wikipedia

   A level below 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) 10–16 hours without eating is normal. 5.6–6 mmol/L (100–109 mg/dL) may indicate prediabetes and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) should be offered to high-risk individuals (old people, those with high blood pressure etc.). 6.1–6.9 mmol/L (110–125 mg/dL) means OGTT should be offered even if other ...

6. Blood sugar regulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar_regulation

   The cells release the glucose into the bloodstream, increasing blood sugar levels. Hypoglycemia, the state of having low blood sugar, is treated by restoring the blood glucose level to normal by the ingestion or administration of dextrose or carbohydrate foods. It is often self-diagnosed and self-medicated orally by the ingestion of balanced meals.

7. Diabetes management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabetes_management

   The main goal of diabetes management is to keep blood glucose (BG) levels as normal as possible. [1] If diabetes is not well controlled, further challenges to health may occur. [ 1 ] People with diabetes can measure blood sugar by various methods, such as with a BG meter or a continuous glucose monitor, which monitors over several days. [ 2 ]
