Facts and Definition of Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
Hemoglobin A1c, often abbreviated HbA1c, is a form of hemoglobin (a blood pigment that carries oxygen) that is bound to glucose.
The blood test for HbA1c level is routinely performed in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Blood HbA1c levels are reflective of how well diabetes is controlled.
The normal range for level for hemoglobin A1c is less than 6%.
HbA1c also is known as glycosylated, or glycated hemoglobin.
HbA1c levels are reflective of blood glucose levels over the past six to eight weeks and do not reflect daily ups and downs of blood glucose.
High HbA1c levels indicate poorer control of diabetes than levels in the normal range.
HbA1c is typically measured to determine how well a type 1 or type 2 diabetes treatment plan (including medications, exercise, or dietary changes) is working.
What Is Hemoglobin A1c?
Hemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying pigment that gives blood its red color and is also the predominant protein in red blood cells. About 90% of hemoglobin is hemoglobin A (the "A" stands for adult type). Although one chemical component accounts for 92% of hemoglobin A, approximately 8% of hemoglobin A is made up of minor components that are chemically slightly different. These minor components include hemoglobin A1c, A1b, A1a1, and A1a2. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a minor component of hemoglobin to which glucose is bound. HbA1c also is sometimes referred to as glycated, glycosylated hemoglobin, or glycohemoglobin.
