Analysis index

Glucose in blood, fasting: 2 ml NaF blood or NaF plasma (monovette with yellow cap). It is optimal when the NaF blood is centrifuged immediately and NaF plasma is sent in. Storage at 4°C is recommended (stability in NaF plasma at 4-8 °C: 7 days) Glucose for screening of gestational diabetes mellitus: Please use a special monovette (GLUCOEXACT, grey cap). Attention: Please take care for correct filling!

Fasting glucose:
< 100 mg/dl (< 5,6 mmol/l): normal
110-125 mg/dl (5,6 - 6,9 mmol/l): impaired fasting glucose
>=126 mg/dl (>= 7,0 mmol/l): diabetes mellitus

Gestational diabetes:
Fasting glucose: < 92 mg/dl
50 g Screening test (Screening 24+0 – 27+6 SSW): < 135 mg/dl
75 g OGTT (after pathological result from screening or as first test in 24+0 – 27+6 SSW):
< 92 mg/dl (fasting)
< 180 mg/dl (60 minutes)
< 153 mg/dl (120 minutes)

Diabetes screening (alternative: HbA1c), gestational diabetes, monitorng of antidiabetical therapy (together with HbA1c), hypoglycemia
