Effect of Hemoglobin levels on Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Measurement in Type 2 Diabetes Patients
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: The study evaluated the effect of hemoglobin levels on non-invasive blood glucose measurement.
Method: Retrospective study in Type 2 diabetic patient, who were treated at Vajira Hospital from October 2018 to January 2019, were collected including baseline characteristic data and laboratory data from Ephis program. The data will be analyzed to determine the effect of hemoglobin levels on non-invasive blood glucose beasurement.
Result: A total of 200 type 2 diabetic patients were enrolled in the study. The average hemoglobin was 10.29±2.09 g/dL. The sample group with anemia accounted for 67%. The average glucose measured by non-invasive blood glucose meter was 109.57±31.38 mg/dL, by venous blood glucose was 154.37±57.27 mg/dL with statistically significant differences (p<0.001). The absolute relative difference values of the glucose measured by non invasive blood glucose meter and venous blood glucose was 29.95±21.45 mg/dL. The result of study on effect of hemoglobin levels on non-invasive blood glucose measurement in type 2 diabetic patients with or without anemia were no significant differences in the absolute relative difference values of the glucose measured by non-invasive blood glucose meter and venous blood glucose (p=0.425). The analysis of subgroups with anemia was classified by severity into mild, moderate, severe, and very severe. There was no difference in the absolute relative difference values of the glucose measured by the non-invasive blood glucose meter between subgroups (p=0.266, 0.852, 0.335 and 0.493, respectively).
Conclusion: The hemoglobin levels do not affect on the non-invasive blood glucose measurement in type 2 diabetic patients with or without anemia.
