Clinical Significance
✔ The higher the level of glucose in the blood, the higher the level of hemoglobin A1c is detectable on red blood cells.
✔ Hemoglobin A1c levels correlate with average levels of glucose in the blood over an approximately three-month time.
✔ Normal ranges for hemoglobin A1c in people without diabetes is about 4% to 5.9%. People with diabetes with poor glucose control have hemoglobin A1c levels above 7%.
✔ Hemoglobin A1c levels are routinely used to determine blood sugar control over time in people with diabetes.
✔ Decreasing hemoglobin A1c levels by 1% may decrease the risk of microvascular complications (for example, diabetic eye, nerve, or kidney disease) by 10%.
