Overview

Overview:

This test measures plasma glucose levels 1 hour after ingesting a 70g glucose load. It is typically used in specific clinical scenarios, such as evaluating glucose metabolism or diagnosing certain types of gluco...

Risk Assessment

Normal (<140 mg/dL): Indicates normal glucose tolerance.
Elevated (≥140 mg/dL): Suggests potential glucose intolerance or impaired glucose metabolism. Further tests like the Oral Glucose Toler...

Normal Range

Normal Range:

Normal value: Less than 140 mg/dL (<7.8 mmol/L).

Interpretation

Interpretation:

<140 mg/dL: Normal glucose metabolism; no immediate concern.
140–199 mg/dL: Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or prediabetes.
≥2...

Sample Type

Sample Type:

Plasma: Venous blood sample collected in a fluoride oxalate tube to prevent glycolysis, ensuring accurate glucose measurement.

Description

The plasma glucose level measured 1 hours after a 70-gram glucose tolerance test (GTT) is a diagnostic tool used to assess glucose metabolism. This test involves measuring the glucose levels in the blood after fasting, followed by consuming a glucose solution. After 1 hours, a blood sample is taken to determine how efficiently the body has processed the glucose. Elevated glucose levels at this point may indicate impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes mellitus, providing valuable insights into an individual's metabolic health and potential risk ....
