Comparison of blood glucose, hba1c, and fructosamine by tom bartol, rn-c, mn, fnp, cde: to convert the a1c to average blood glucose, consider the high end of the normal range (e.g. if normal is 4-6%, then 6%) is equal to 120 mg/dl. for each change in 1% of a1c, there is a corresponding increase or decrease of approximately 30 mg/dl average.. In practice, fructosamine testing refers to a laboratory test for diabetes management that it is rarely used in clinical practice (simple blood glucose monitoring or hba1c testing are preferred).. High fructosamine levels indicate high average blood glucose levels took place in the previous two to three weeks. usually, a trend is monitored with repeat testing, whether of fructosamine levels or other indicators, such as glycated albumin or hba1c. if the results remain high, it shows you have not had good blood glucose control..
Fructosamine (glycated albumin) measures short term control of blood sugar for the past 1-3 weeks. each 75 µmol change equals a change of approximately 60 mg/dl blood sugar or 2% hba1c..
Objective —discordances between hba1c and other measures of glycemic control are common in clinical practice and remain unexplained. we developed a measure of discordance between hba1c and fructosamine (fa) (glycosylated serum proteins) to conduct a systematic evaluation.. Like hba1c, fructosamine is a marker of mean glucose. whether fructosamine measurements should be corrected for either total protein or albumin concentrations is debatable; currently, no formal correction method is recommended [9] ..
