Diabetes Mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by rise in blood glucoselevel. The measurement of Glycated Hemoglobin has been widely used to monitor glycemic control inpatients with diabetes mellitus which is also a best marker for monitoring long term complications. As theprevalence of diabetes is increasing day by day, it is mandatory to give importance for self-management.Objectives: The objective of the present study was to compare the levels of estimated HbA1c withcalculated HbA1c derived from a simple, cost effective mathematical formula by using fasting plasmaglucose.Materials and Methods: The present study comprised of 66 fasting whole blood samples. All the sampleswere analyzed for Glycated hemoglobin and glucose, using this blood glucose level HbA1c was calculatedby a formula, HbA1c = 2.6+0.03 + Blood glucose (mg/dl). Both estimated and calculated values of HbA1cwere compared by dependent t-test.Results: It was observed that the mean + SD levels of Estimated HbA1c and Calculated HbA1c were7.11+1.89 and 6.60+1.58 respectively. The p value was Conclusion: Therefore the study concluded that, there exists a significant difference between the levels of estimated HbA1c and calculated HbA1c and thus this mathematical formula cannot be usedinterchangeably with estimated HbA1c.Keywords: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), Diabetes mellitus, Fasting plasma glucose.
