For example, if a patient has a hemoglobin level of 100 g/L, the analytical variation (CV a) is 1.8% and the intra-individual variability CV i is 2.2%, then the critical difference is 8.1 g/L. Thus, for changes of less than 8 g/L since a previous test, the possibility that the change is completely caused by test-retest variability may need to ...
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'.
Glucose can be transported from the intestines or liver to other tissues in the body via the bloodstream. [2] Cellular glucose uptake is primarily regulated by insulin, a hormone produced in the pancreas. [2] Once inside the cell, the glucose can now act as an energy source as it undergoes the process of glycolysis.
